I am a beginner and I want to install PHPfox on the lowest Standard Droplets plan. I can’t Intall NodeJS and Redis on my shared hosting. Want to know if its possible here. Thanks..
Hi Verdz. Technically both can be installed on the lowest standard droplet. Node.js expects at least 1.5GB per process, so you may need to configure your install to run on a low memory droplet: http://fiznool.com/blog/2016/10/01/running-a-node-dot-js-app-in-a-low-memory-environment/. The $10 plan is more suited for a Node.js application.
An empty Redis install utilizes 3MB of RAM while 1 million key value pairs utilizes around 85MB, so it will probably run fine along side your Node.js installation. https://redis.io/topics/faq
