Are their VM's performance on the same level as the others you listed or higher? What do you base the "high performance" comment on?

- cs02rm0 13y agoYes, at least. For one I believe all DigitalOcean boxes have SSDs. I've found their boxes much better per $ than an EC2 VM. EC2 has a much wider tool suite and is possibly better if you regularly spin machines up and down. YMMV, but for just 'a box' they compete pretty well IMHO.
- latch 13y agoThey differentiate themselves by offering SSDs for all instance sizes + offering a very cheap level ($5). While SSDs won't improve all workloads, I think "high performance" claims compared to the typically IO-weak alternative isn't unreasonable. Also, they're popular enough now that I'm surprised people haven't heard about them (especially after recent funding)...
