Is it worth migrating to the cloud for personal purposes?

Question

Cloud computing

Hello everyone, this question is for those who have their own resources for experiments, tests and other manipulations (raise the counter-strike server?), that is, for themselves. The question arose because of the convenience of using the cloud, for example, yandex. Now there is a dedicated server on which proxmox is actually deployed (previously there was xen), all this needs to be serviced periodically, something needs to be fixed there, and if God forbid it falls, then the whole configuration was written when mammoths walked the earth and it will be remembered it’s difficult, if I then thought of at least some kind of dock to throw my future in 10 years, it would be good, but I didn’t. Finally, the question itself - what do you use, what do you use, gentlemen?

Answer 1

And how does the Yandex cloud differ from proxmox in your opinion?
Do you have a problem with what - with proxmox or with containers inside?
Containers are easy enough to back up actually...

Answer 2

When the main infrastructure is served for you, it is convenient. There is only a question of price - if for yourself and play around, then paying is not always profitable. In any case, the cloud is served centrally - this will save money and not bother with any updates on the hypervisor. It remains to monitor only the guest system. Perhaps the provider will provide backup copies. I don't think it's going to be "free".
But this is many times more profitable than keeping a dedicated server and servicing it.

Answer 3

Well, Cloud does not solve your problems
. For example, there is no backup, well, you came to Cloud and died, but in clouds everything constantly dies, there are no miracles.
So there is no point, except for the problem of paying more, everything will work worse
