    <p>I have created a small game in Java and I would like to add the ability for a player to publish his highscores online.</p> <p>I'm willing to write the server software myself (it's easy these days with Ruby Mongrel, or even C++). I just need to have some sort hosting. One solution that immediately comes to mind is <a href="http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Amazon EC2</a>. But that's kind of expensive for my needs. Since the requirements are very minimal (I don't even need a website, just a web service) I think there may be a cheaper solution out there.</p> <p>Does anyone know of a free or cheap provider for this kind of thing?</p> <h3>Update</h3> <p>For those interested, this is solution I came up with:</p> <ul> <li>a <a href="http://www.slicehost.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">SliceHost</a></li> <li>purchased a domain name</li> <li><a href="http://code.google.com/p/stacked-crooked/source/browse/#svn/trunk/PlayGroundCpp/HighScoreServer/src" rel="nofollow noreferrer">C++ HTTP server</a> <ul> <li>built upon the <a href="http://pocoproject.org/docs/Poco.Net.HTTPServer.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Poco HTTPServer</a></li> <li>uses SQLite database via <a href="http://pocoproject.org/blog/?p=24" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Poco Data</a></li> </ul></li> <li>Server implements a REST API supporting <ul> <li>High Score table <ul> <li><a href="http://stacked-crooked.com/hs" rel="nofollow noreferrer">/hs</a> content type deduced from accept header</li> <li><a href="http://stacked-crooked.com/hs.xml" rel="nofollow noreferrer">/hs.xml</a> forces xml</li> <li><a href="http://stacked-crooked.com/hs.txt" rel="nofollow noreferrer">/hs.txt</a> forces plain text</li> </ul></li> <li><a href="http://stacked-crooked.com/hs/add" rel="nofollow noreferrer">/hs/add</a> html form, does a POST using XMLHttpRequest</li> <li><a href="http://stacked-crooked.com/hof" rel="nofollow noreferrer">/hof</a> Hall of Fame, content type deduced from accept header <ul> <li><a href="http://stacked-crooked.com/hof.txt" rel="nofollow noreferrer">/hof.txt</a> forces plain text</li> <li><a href="http://stacked-crooked.com/hof.xml" rel="nofollow noreferrer">/hof.xml</a> forces xml</li> </ul></li> </ul></li> <li>game: <a href="http://code.google.com/p/stacked-crooked/source/browse/trunk/PlayGround/Clojure/Tetris.clj" rel="nofollow noreferrer">my own Tetris clone</a> written in <a href="http://clojure.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Clojure</a></li> </ul>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
