> Introducing a new $4 Droplet
Customers use DigitalOcean for use cases ranging from hosting mission-critical applications to testing new ideas. To empower even more developers across the globe, we are introducing a new Droplet priced at $4/month with 1 vCPU, 512MB memory, 500GB bandwidth, and a 10GB SSD.
- bombcar 5y agoI'm kind of annoyed that vCPU is now a measurement of ... something. Whereas memory, bandwidth, and storage are "roughly" comparable (there are performance differences between SSDs and RAM for sure, they're not as blatant) the difference between "a single core" on a CPU can be completely insane. We need some form of "generic CPU power" that can more accurately compare these things.
