• dynos 200$
• db 200$
• redis 25$
• papertrails 16$

Dynos

Cost: Standard2x (max of $50/month) to Standard1x (max of $25/month)
Current: 4 Standard2x = 200$

• scale down dynos
  • from 4 to 3 Standard2x = 150$
  • from 4 to 2 Standard2x = 100$
  • from 4 to 3 Standard1x = 75$
  • from 4 to 2 Standard1x = 50$

Note: To provide a more accurate real need under stress edit or not, run stress test to the platform. see www.artillery.io. time estimate 2|3|4 weeks (+some additional cost during period to have a 'production clone' environment in review

DB

current standard2 (256 GB, connections 400, ram 8GB) = 200$

• scale down db standard0 (64 GB, connections 120, ram 4GB) = 50$

Note (for future maybe?) if DB storage won't be enough (current size with files 8.4GB (13% standard0) - without files [3.62 GB] it will be 4.78GB (7.47% standard0):

• integrate https://elements.heroku.com/addons/bucketeer to save only 3.5 GB but spend 15$ (15 GB) or 50$ (20 GB) / month

Projected spending

(50~150)$ + 50$ + 25 + 16 = (141~241)$

= -(300~200)$
