  Currently the database is a managed DigitalOcean Postgres instance, but I am going to migrate it to a 32 thread 128 gb dedicated server.

  It’s something that I’ve been hoping we won’t need, as the managed database service has allowed me to not worry about patches, backups, etc (they took care of all of that automatically). Unfortunately it is clear now that further upgrades are just too costly on that service & actually the amount of configuration and tuning I would like to do is simply not possible there. So seems like right now, moving to the dedicated server for the database is the only option.

      I’m pretty sure I remember seeing the specs when he moved the server behind Cloudflare. It was put behind their CDN because we kept getting DDoS attacks. It’s fairly nice if I recall correctly.

        I thought so as well. I thought he had an architectural diagram but I can’t find them. So I must be wrong
