Hosting website with MagmaDB on Seasidehosting

Hi. The problem with Seasidehosting is that (I think) you have a limit of
250 MB of the HD.

Maybe a little trick is to register an account where you upload the image of
a magma server. There you will have 250 MB free for that. Then you register
another APP with seaside and the magma client.

I have no idea if 250 MB for Magma is ok or not neither your needs or your
app's needs.

Netstyle offers solutions with much more space, but of course, you will have
to pay.

Cheers

Mariano
