Improvements to Private Networks

• mreithub 9y ago
  "Beginning in February of 2018, communication over DigitalOcean Private Network IPs will be isolated within the account or team where they were created" Great news, definitely a step in the right direction. The fact that DO's "private network" isn't really private is something that's not very well known I think (try googling for the topic). Until then: Use DO firewalls to whitelist only the services connections you want. Their firewalls treat private and public networks equally -> no more publicly accessible NoSQL databases :)

    Yeah, it's great news for me too. Earlier this year I tried setting up VPNs so my droplets could speak to each other in isolation. Knowing that I don't have to worry about that will be a load off my mind.

  It’s a monster L2 domain, I’m amazed it hasn’t crashed and burned by now.
