I've only used DigitalOcean. My anecdotal experience from running a Chef Server on a 1GB instance has been pretty mixed. The price is good, but network and CPU performance feels very variable to me. A month ago their Amsterdam servers were unable to be resized, and there was nothing about it on their status page. I tweeted and was told they'd be working "some time later today". Doesn't fill me with much confidence in general.
I'd still choose Linode for anything of importance - their long reputation is well earned in my opinion. But, if this breach is true, I hope they handle it well.
- vladikoff 13y agoYeap same experience here with DigitalOcean CPU performance. If CPU power is important to you, Linode's CPUs are a LOT better.

- lalc 13y agoYeah, I just migrated from Linode to Ramnode (just in time!) and I'm quite happy with the performance. Great network connectivity.
