- karolist 6y agoAWS craze started much later than when it was founded. I'd say this was fueled by devops movement and docker, so around 2015
- redis_mlc 6y agoThanks for pointing that out. I thought DO was a vanilla VPS like the rest of the bunch, but it's not. Hats off to DO (2011) for rolling their own cloud after AWS (2006), and gaining mindshare! Anyway, to the GP: what DO has done when head-to-head with a giant like AWS is pretty rare.
