    Installing Nightscout on DigitalOcean Server

Why?


You have full SSH access to your server
Creating a server takes a minute
You can choose from various places on earth where the server should be located
You can make a backup / snapshot of the server in order to delete and later restore it (saves money if you don't need it for a while)
You pay per hour, the $5 / month version should be sufficient
Loads of documentation on how to install things
Control and track the server via the DigitalOcean control panel website
