I wrote a python script which downloads data via the Yahoo! Finance API and puts it into a file. After that, it uploads the file to Dropbox. The script does that every 10 minutes.
How can I implement this at a minimal cost with a server? I don't want to let my computer run 24/7.
Thank you in advance!
If the script is gonna run every 10 minutes, EC2 etc. won't do you any good since they are priced based on 15-minute time slices (and the server will always be used).
The cheapest solution is a small VPS, which can be found for as little as 5$ / month from some providers. Install dropbox & python and you're good to go.
