Question: Can an OMR VPS also host a low-volume server like an MQTT Broker? #850

Closed bnhf closed 4 years ago

bnhf commented 4 years ago

Expected Behavior

Hopefully, that I can use my OMR VPS (1v core, 1GB RAM, 25GB SSD on Vultr.com) to host another server or two like an MQTT Broker, and/or a Ubiquiti UniFi Cloud Controller. Both would just be for my personal use, so would have modest traffic

Actual Behavior

Don't know. I'm hoping somebody else has tried this.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

  1. Install VPS
  2. Install Mosquito
  3. Install Unifi Cloud Controller

Specifications

OpenMPTCProuter version: v0.53.3 r0+11546-a74095c68c OpenMPTCProuter VPS version: 0.1008 OpenMPTCProuter platform: RPi4

Yes, this should work even if not recommended.

I think you should change the server. This is my vps with only OMR installed on it. http://prntscr.com/r716yc

Thanks for the replies. I can see now that putting the MQTT broker on the OpenMPTCProuter side of things (with appropriate port forwarding), rather than installing it on the VPS, is a better solution. Alternatively, if the traffic ever gets to be more than I want to have on my cellular links, I'll spin-up another virtual server on Vultr.
