I used digital ocean to setup a mirror test environment. How is their reliability? I noticed once or twice it I would lose connectivity. I have quite a few boxes on linode and thinking about switching over production infrastructure. EDIT --- And today damn linode decides to go down.

I lose connectivity all the time. Tried to contact their support, they could not do anything. One solution for me is just to use cron job and reboot the VM once the problem is detected.

  Support is quick to reply but often there is nothing they can do. I've tried contacting regarding both technical problems and billing issues and in both occasions they couldn't do nothing to help.

  Wait, you lose connectivity or the VM goes down? They're very different things...

    VM loses connectivity. When I try to ssh - it times out. Also can't connect to anything FROM that VM.

  Are you speaking about linode or digitalocean?
