Disclosure: PM of High-CPU Droplets @ DigitalOcean

I'd highly recommend people check out the performance of the High-CPU Droplets for any compute-bound tasks like CI/CD, batch processing or active front-end web servers.

Someone from our team put together a comparison of compute series machines which includes GCE and you can see the price-to-performance ratio here is pretty solid for DigitalOcean: https://imgur.com/a/o16t2

I'm curious: is anyone at a point where they're pulling out of equities at all? I feel like things are getting a bit too good to be true in the markets.

The Shiller P/E ratio is at a 2nd-time high - the only other higher time being the dot-com boom and bust: multpl.com/shiller-pe/

We published the roll-out schedule for Block Storage a little while back. Both LON1 and AMS3 are planned for this year: https://blog.digitalocean.com/block-storage-comes-to-singapo...
