If you really want the _cheapest_ solution you can probably run vibe.d
on small VPS with 64 or 128 MB ram.

See https://www.lowendtalk.com/ and https://lowendbox.com/

I've used https://securedragon.net/ (12USD/year) and https://buyvm.net
(15USD/year) for VPN purposes and never had any problem.

If you need more power there are also often cheaper options than cloud
hosting. For example, I use this as a GDC build server:

(However, as these are shared services you have to carefully look at
network throughput / CPU usage guarantees)
