In this tweet, I'd like to publicly answer a question I often receive in private.
Q: How/Where is ballchasing.com hosted ? Cloud vs Self-hosted, the cost breakdown, what technologies are used, ...
Check the thread for the answers:
then there are a 2 worker servers handling the replays parsing, indexing, stats computations, ...
2 front servers serving the website and api, behind a load balancer
all of these are hosted using Hetzner too
The Hetzner stack costs around 400$/month
Continued ...
I don't like it but I had to resort to a huge banner in the website asking for patreon support because keeping the site up has been taking a toll on my finances for a couple years now.
I've been consistently paying a couple hundred euros from my pocket every month for a while😓
After 5 hours & 30 minutes of downtime, the service is up again.
What happened is an unlucky sequence of events. Check the thread for more details.
My apologies for such an extended downtime.
- the automated apply noticied that the OS should change from ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04
- so it went ahead and recreated all of the frontend (website + api) and worker servers
- hence the downtime

Alright let's try to steer conversation back to the RLCS for a bit:
What's your favorite "advanced stat?" @BallchasingRL keeps track of player speed, distance to ball, time in different 3rds of the field, boost averages, all sorts of fun stuff. What's your favorite?
❤️
When finding footage for our videos, my job is made infinitely easier when I utilise features from @LiquipediaRL, @octane_gg & @BallchasingRL
LQ for scores, Octane for specifics, and Ballchasing to check the 3D view & to download the replays from. They're all invaluable 🐐🐐🐐

Damn but while working on the upcoming dark mode, switching back to the light mode (to check for regressions) hurts the eyes something fierce !
