just wondering how much more it would cost in comparison to other WordPress hosting like DreamHost, Siteground, WP Engine, Kinsta etc.
It depends a bit on the cloud server provider you choose, but usually less than $5/month is the cost of a basic KVM cloud server with 1GB RAM memory which is usually more than enough for a typical small business website.
some KVM providers like RackNerd are even cheaper, check out:

or just search Google like:
“desired city/country + KVM VPS servers”
hallo,
can it run on 512MB memory servers?

maybe but you’d probably have to tune it a lot. not worth it imo
just pay for the 1GB RAM.

By far the best place to find good deals is LowEndTalk.com or LowEndBox.com (they’re pretty much the same site, LET is just a forum-based version of it, you can generally find better deals on LET if you’re willing to look around a little bit).
I’ve used a few different providers from LET over the years, the ones that I can personally recommend would be Advin Servers, Layer, RackNerd, BuyVM, Crunchbits & Hostbrrr. There’s probably a few more that I’m forgetting, haha, as I have used a lot of different companies which were promoting good deals on there.
You can easily find a deal on LET (especially if you are willing to do something where you pay for 3, 6, 12 months in advance) for a VPS and get your price WAY under $5 a month for running SlickStack.
I recommend being cautious with LET providers. Many of them are scammers, or shut down the business without warning.
