So I have a server cli app I wrote in .netcore 2 I need to run it on an always online pc.

I was thinking digital ocean? Anyone have any experience with this type of thing? would it be easier to use docker?


I have no clue where to go for this type of thing, don't have a lot of money my budget max is 35$ a month id prefer to pay like 20$.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thats not what I need, I need a cloud environment that I can run a .netcore app that logins to my ftp server parsers logs and post data to a website.

.netcore can run on both Windows and Linux (assuming you didn't use any OS depending code). Far as I know, Digital Ocean provides you a VPS so you can run your code on it, just install the .net core runtime and run it (if you need to run service, make sure to configure that as normal linux services).

To add to this, just to be sure you can send them a PM asking if NET core is supported. If they don't know for some reason, ask if you can get a refund if you can't host your website.

Basic overview.
Get a VPS/Server depending on your needs. If it's very basic, a $5 VPS from OVH will work fine.
Install your favorite Linux Distribution.
Install .net core 2 runtime. Use google to find an easy tutorial.
I normally transfer the entire project over and build on the server. Might be easier ways, but it was the fastest.
Go to the output directory and run the dll file (Google how, if you don't know).

Currently have 5 servers and a VPS running some projects.
