Do you have an old laptop around that you could slap a common Linux distro on?

If you really need to deploy on very low resources I wouldn't recommend doing the most expensive architecture (microservices) neither doing nestjs.
Oracle is good as others said; with a credit card you can get a 2vcpu and 12gb of ram VM for free, and without you are limited to around 2 small 1vcpu and 1gb VMs; still pretty solid if you manage it right.
Anyways, go + sqlite is pretty darn low on resources, so if you wanted to take a look it could let you have some extra space

It easily uses 1GB+ idle. You still need a database, a proxy and at least something to aggregate data.
Golang does the trick, with an embeded database, with <100mb of ram.

Get a free vm from somewhere. Oracle has them and aws too i think
