    One of those 3 cent one time programmable microcontrollers would be sufficient. Something with enough power to run a web server is just wasteful.

        And the term web server doesn’t mean it has to run the whole of AWS. It just means it can deliver some content over http.

          Yeah, I doubt it’s running more than a couple concurrent connections. Idle web servers take very little resources.
