Droplets are Linux-based virtual machines (VMs) that run on virtualized hardware in DigitalOcean. Each Droplet you create is a separate server that you can use on its own or as part of a larger cloud-based infrastructure. Droplets from Digital Ocean made moving certain web programs to the cloud a breeze. We've also been able to use contractors without providing them access to our internal network. I enjoy not having to worry about our web apps' security, and I intend to shift more stuff to the digital ocean in the future. You have complete control over how you interact with your Droplets. Our user-friendly UI, CLI, API, and Terraform Provider make managing virtual machines a breeze. Resize a Droplet or a group of them horizontally. Deploy across many data centers around the world, each with a 99.99 percent uptime SLA. Every Droplet comes with unbeatable bandwidth price and 1TB of outbound data transfer each month, as well as free monitoring and firewalls. Read more
