Another good news for Digitalocean users, after Black Friday coupons. The company has opened a new data center
AMS2 in Amsterdam, the second in Europe and, judging by a
press release , with the support of a private network (
Shared Private Networking ) between the droplets. Previously, this feature was only available in the data center
NY2 .
In the future, promise new capacity, perhaps in the UK, and support for
IPv6 .
I would like to ask the community how and why it is worth using a private network between virtual machines, despite the fact that the service already provides the possibility of backups, and if there is a shortage of capacity, you can take the droplet more easily.
PS: did not know how to publish. There is not enough material for a full post, but this is not quite a translation. Should I post such news? If not, I'll put it in drafts.
