  • 6 nines is really really difficult. It’s hard to estimate costs without specific requirements, but a marketplace site with 1000 daily users means you’re expecting about 1 user per minute, which isn’t a lot. I’d imagine you could get by with the cheapest cloud hosting.

    The real problem is that most major cloud providers don’t offer 6 nines. Even AWS only offers credits below 99.5%, so you’d want to not lock yourself into a single provider. My best suggestion is to have a small/cheap server with all of the big names and load balance/round robin between them.
