Hi Marshall,

Running programs persistently online is an expansive topic and there are a lot of possible answers. I'd suggest you take a look at AWS Lambda, GCP Functions, and Azure functions. They're all available with free tier options with generous allowances within the first 12 months of usage.

There will be a learning curve for deploying on this sort of service but it is still much simpler than setting up your own server. Generally the official documentation for these platforms is serviceable and should allow you to get something running. If you need more detailed instruction this sort of infrastructure stuff is not really the domain of Team Treehouse, so you might want to check out acloud.guru - this is their focus.

Cheers,

Eric
