Finally. For a while now I've been using Amazon Web Services (AWS) when I need to spin up a quick testing server independent of my standard Linode hosting. The capped pricing per month is a nice touch, exactly the way Digital Ocean do it.
As a Linode customer this makes me very happy, especially knowing it should hopefully garner the company a few more customers. A great company that deserves the success they get.
- bashcoder 13y agoWhen comparing to AWS, it's worth noting that both Linode and DO continue to charge hourly fees for instances that have been stopped but not destroyed. AWS does not do this. Stop an EC2 instance and you stop paying hourly instance fees. Even if it hasn't been terminated. There are small fees for maintaining EBS volumes if you are using them for inactive instances, however.
