digitalocean 想要挑战amazon？

DigitalOcean is quickly becoming a household name in the web-hosting world. For $5 a month, the company lets you rent a basic virtual private server (or “droplets,” as the company calls them) with 512MB of RAM and a 20GB of SSD-powered hard disk space in one of its three locations (two in the U.S. and one in Amsterdam). The company, as its co-founder and CEO Ben Uretsky told me, believes that its focus on simplicity, speed and keeping prices low will allow it to effectively challenge the incumbents in this space.不得不承认，digitalocean 发展的十分迅速，并且获得了风险投资。但是我觉得他们离amazon 还是差的太远了。

除了价格低廉，采用ssd 以外完全看不到任何优势。而 amazon 在cloud方面各种专利，并且获得了美国政府的认可。Coming Soon: More Data Centers, Focus On Features
Looking ahead, DigitalOcean is planning to launch a data center in Brazil, followed by a location in Asia (either Singapore or Hong Kong) and then India. The company also just hired 28 new employees to allow it to move from just sustaining its quick growth to launching new features. The first of these new features (which is already in beta), is support for quickly launching pre-configured servers with basic LAMP setups and similar use cases.按照传统， digitalocean 一般会选用 equinix 的机房，希望digitalocean 能够在HK 的 equinix 开立亚洲的中心。

便宜甚至是免费的策略搞到足够用户然后上市或者出售，一贯的策略而已。

虽然感觉速度很牛,价格很实惠,但是最近几天线路老是不稳定,已经换到rackspace了

rackspace cloud?

对的,先用下看,用的一代的256, 1代的硬件貌似还给力一些

Amazon的技术强大，尤其Amazon网店的技术积累和沉淀，会给aws增分不少

Amazon我也试用了,感觉一点不习惯, 免费的都不用了,取消了账户:lol

rackspace cloud 基于openstack。。。离amazon的技术还是差了不少。。。

不过rackspace 的机房主要靠stable， SLA 100%

从route上来说，感觉还是里aws 差点

aws 每年都会挂一到两次 :lol
