maybe because digital ocean has and will always be a VPS company, they are not cloud.
- vertex-four 12y agoThey claim to be a "cloud hosting" platform, though, which is the confusing bit.
- lbotos 12y agoWhat do you think makes the separation between a "cloud" provider and a VPS company?
- justinsb 12y agoThe glib answer is that a cloud provider understands the need for a private network. But, in that is a deeper truth: a VPS is a cheaper machine. It becomes "cloud" when you use many machines together. If you're using many machines, you really want intercommunication between those machines to be easy, fast and - yes - reasonably secure.
