I second this. They’re upfront about pricing and don’t have many different products so the interface isn’t overwhelming.

I checked the quick start, that aren’t deterring people from using Docker, they’re saying you shouldn’t use the Docker CLI to launch it, and instead use docker-compose. Which is fair, compose is a much better format for persistent containers and being able to use l easily manage and migrate them.

I would start by getting a Kill-A-Watt (or generic) so you can measure power draw (under artificial load). The price between a 600W UPS and a 1000W UPS can be dramatic. When I hear “small server” I think of an R210ii / similar platform that uses less wattage than a old fashioned light bulb.
