About DigitalOcean

DigitalOcean provides virtual machines (Droplets), managed databases, Kubernetes, and object storage aimed at developers and small-to-midsize businesses. It differentiates from hyperscalers with transparent per-second billing (60-second minimum), no surprise fees, and a simple control panel. New accounts receive $200 in free credits for 60 days. A realistic production stack (compute + database + backups) typically costs $90-$150/month.

AI Agent Use Cases

- Droplets (VMs) starting at $4/month with per-second billing since January 2026

- Managed Kubernetes (DOKS) from $12/month

- Managed Databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB) from $15/month

- Spaces object storage and CDN

- App Platform for PaaS-style deployments

- GPU Droplets for AI/ML workloads
