Anywhere that gives you root access and you can install Docker will work.

There are plenty of topics on this issue. Here are some I found by searching “cheap hosting”: [Cheap Docker hosting?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/cheap-docker-hosting/44262), [https://meta.discourse.org/t/the-cheapest-solution-for-hosting/24060](https://meta.discourse.org/t/the-cheapest-solution-for-hosting/24060), [What are the cheapest ways to host a Discourse?](https://meta.discourse.org/t/what-are-the-cheapest-ways-to-host-a-discourse/40683).

AWS is also a popular option.
