- ricardobeat 14y agoDigitalOcean[1] is a ssd-only VM provider, by their numbers they should have a few TB in SSD storage. Not that large, but would be interesting to hear about their experiences. [1] https://www.digitalocean.com/ https://www.digitalocean.com/
- ukandy 14y agoYes. It would be interesting to read about their experiences as I presume most large SSD deployments would be for databases only.
