## Cost Breakdown
|
||||
|
||||
### Object Storage
|
||||
```
|
||||
Storage: 1 GB × €0.01 = €0.01/month
|
||||
Traffic: 50 GB/month (first 75 GB free)
|
||||
Total: €0.01-0.50/month
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Object Storage + CDN
|
||||
```
|
||||
CDN base: €1/month
|
||||
Storage: €0.01/month
|
||||
Traffic: Reduced origin traffic
|
||||
SSL: Included
|
||||
Total: €1-3/month
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Docker Instance (DEV1-S)
|
||||
```
|
||||
Instance: €7-10/month
|
||||
Traffic: 100 GB included
|
||||
SSL: Free (Let's Encrypt)
|
||||
Total: €10/month (predictable)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### GitHub Pages (Current)
|
||||
```
|
||||
Free for public repositories
|
||||
Custom domain: ✅
|
||||
SSL: Automatic
|
||||
Limits: 100 GB bandwidth/month, 1 GB storage
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Traffic Threshold Analysis
|
||||
|
||||
When to choose each option:
|
||||
|
||||
### Stay with GitHub Pages if:
|
||||
- Traffic < 100 GB/month
|
||||
- No special requirements
|
||||
- Happy with current setup
|
||||
|
||||
### Choose Object Storage if:
|
||||
- Want French hosting
|
||||
- Traffic 100-500 GB/month
|
||||
- Need cost optimization
|
||||
- Minimal configuration needs
|
||||
|
||||
### Choose Docker Instance if:
|
||||
- Need custom server config
|
||||
- Traffic > 500 GB/month
|
||||
- Want full control
|
||||
- Need advanced features (auth, API endpoints, etc.)

||||
## Migration Path
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1: Parallel Deployment
|
||||
1. Keep GitHub Pages active
|
||||
2. Set up Scaleway (either method)
|
||||
3. Test thoroughly
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 2: DNS Switch
|
||||
```
|
||||
notebook.arnodo.fr → Scaleway
|
||||
netlify/pages subdomain → keep as backup
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 3: Complete Migration
|
||||
- Update all links
|
||||
- Verify analytics
|
||||
- Monitor for 30 days
|
||||
- Decommission old setup

## Performance Comparison
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | GitHub Pages | Object Storage | Docker Instance |
|
||||
|--------|-------------|----------------|-----------------|
|
||||
| **TTFB** | ~50-100ms | ~30-50ms | ~20-40ms |
|
||||
| **Global CDN** | ✅ | Optional | No (single region) |
|
||||
| **HTTP/2** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
|
||||
| **Brotli** | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ (configurable) |
|
||||
| **Caching** | Good | Basic | Full control |

|
||||
|
||||
## Recommended Approach
|
||||
|
||||
### For Your Use Case (Network Engineer Blog):
|
||||
|
||||
I recommend **Object Storage** initially because:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Cost-effective**: ~€1/month vs €10/month
|
||||
2. **Low maintenance**: No server to manage
|
||||
3. **Scalable**: Can handle traffic spikes
|
||||
4. **French hosting**: Data sovereignty if needed
|
||||
5. **Easy rollback**: Keep GitHub Pages as backup
|
||||
|
||||
### Upgrade path:
|
||||
```
|
||||
Object Storage → Add CDN if needed → Docker instance only if traffic justifies it
|
||||
```
|
||||

## Emergency Rollback Plan
|
||||
|
||||
If Scaleway deployment fails:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Keep GitHub Pages active** during testing
|
||||
2. **DNS TTL**: Set to 300s (5 min) during migration
|
||||
3. **Rollback**: Change DNS back to GitHub Pages
|
||||
4. **Monitoring**: Set up uptime monitoring (UptimeRobot, etc.)
|
||||
