I'm interested - what type of app can you run on 64mb of ram? What languages are suitable for building these types of microservices?
I'd just like to say how dispiriting I find this question considering I how envious of my friends $4k+ computer I was because it had 64mb of RAM and could play C&C Red Alert with absolutely no slowdown. Let that sink in...in the mid 90s, we comfortably fit a Windows GUI and a somewhat sophisticated game into 64mb of RAM and 20 years of "progress" later, we're asking what kind of special accommodations are necessary t…

AWS is more like 60 seconds

Setting up a container with a cronjob that, once per day, executes a simple shell script which curls a REST endpoint, parses the relevant information, and sends an email out to a pre-defined mailing list or puts it to a slack channel... Yeah, that's pretty simple to pull off within that memory footprint.

There are countless examples of overlaps in software naming. I'm sure this isn't even the word with the most duplicates. Also, the .sh does make this particular example at least slightly distinctive.
