Both public and private institutions in India ideally should be using MeitY-empaneled Cloud Service Providers, considering The Digital Personal Data Protection Bill, 2023 has been passed by both the houses of legislature and it will soon be in force. Once the bill is in force, then all organizations need to use providers having their data centers in India.
List of the MeitY-empaneled Cloud Service Providers:

AWS EC2 Pricing for Hyderabad region: Instance type: t4g.large, Linux OS, vCPU: 4, Memory: 16 GB, On demand hourly rate: $0.0896 X 750 hours X Rs. 80 X 12 months = Rs. 64,512.

Though I am not sure why a single instance of Koha should require 4vCPU and 16 GB memory. We had a recent occurrence of high memory consumption, probably triggered by DDoS attack and then the instance stopped running.
We are still assessing those aspects and would share in the article.
Hope it helps.

In general, it appears Koha-using libraries can benefit a lot from performance enhancements. From a cost perspective, it seems Koha runs well in a minimum of 2vCPU, 8 GB RAM, and 16 GB memory. A server with this spec costs about Rs. 66,816 a year. That’s a significant expense for a library having 5,000 to 10,000 resources. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
