DigitalOcean

Runs cloud infrastructure for apps and AI

DigitalOcean provides cloud infrastructure for developers and businesses to build, host and scale applications and AI services. Teams rent virtual machines called Droplets, store data and run managed databases or Kubernetes clusters through a web console and APIs. Its AI services supply GPU computing, model inference and managed environments where software agents use tools and retain information between sessions. Customers pay for the resources they use, with subscriptions and managed services helping teams run applications without maintaining all the underlying infrastructure themselves.
