Jamstack Hosting Costs @ $.40 /mo

Exploring cost & scalability benefits of hybrid CDN & .NET Apps


The episode describes the cost benefits and architectural advantages of adopting a Jamstack approach for web application development. It outlines how using a combination of static content served through a CDN and a separate .NET server for dynamic functionality leads to significantly cheaper hosting costs, due to the free CDN service offered by GitHub Pages.

It also highlights how this architecture enhances security, scalability, maintainability, portability, and developer experience. By leveraging pre-built static assets and decoupling the UI from the backend, the Jamstack approach allows for a more efficient and cost-effective way to build and deploy modern web applications.
