Running 24/7 chromedriver python script
Posted by hirochifaa@reddit | Python | View on Reddit | 4 comments
Hello guys, I was wondering if its possible to run a python script using a chromedriver on a AWS script service, or do I need to use a VPS ? This is simple task, no huge traitment. Thanks !

AWS Lambda functions are meant for short-lived tasks and are automatically killed after a timeout of 15 minutes. If your python script is long-lived you should use a VPS or home workstation instead.
For a VPS, the CPU must be fast enough to run Chrome. This is a list of multicore Ryzen VPSs picked from LowEndBox.

Hi there, from the /r/Python mods.
We have removed this post as it is not suited to the /r/Python subreddit proper, however it should be very appropriate for our sister subreddit /r/LearnPython or for the r/Python discord: https://discord.gg/python.
The reason for the removal is that /r/Python is dedicated to discussion of Python news, projects, uses and debates. It is not designed to act as Q&A or FAQ board. The regular community is not a fan of "how do I..." questions, so you will not get the best responses over here.
On /r/LearnPython the community and the r/Python discord are actively expecting questions and are looking to help. You can expect far more understanding, encouraging and insightful responses over there. No matter what level of question you have, if you are looking for help with Python, you should get good answers. Make sure to check out the rules for both places.
Warm regards, and best of luck with your Pythoneering!
