Original link: https://seo.g2soft.net/2022/05/17/digitalocean-linode-vultr.html

DigitialOcean released news yesterday, saying that from July 1st, the prices of some products will increase.

I mainly use Basic droplets and VPS. The lowest price has increased from $5 to $6. It doesn’t seem like a dollar. The approximate price increase is 20%, which is relatively high. The Premium Droplets and CPU optimized Droplets saw little gains.

Updated pricing starting July 1, 2022

vultr-promo-over-do.jpg Vultr’s base model is the same price as before DigitalOcean’s price increase. In addition to the two lower-priced VPS it already has, it is a VPS with only IPv6 addresses for $2.5 a month, and a VPS with 512M memory for $3.5 a month.

Will you use Vultr’s VPS?

Today, DigitalOcean has news again, saying that it has launched a smaller droplet, $4 per month, 1vCPU, 512MB RAM, 500GB data, and 10GB storage space. According to it, this new VPS is specially provided for learning, experience, conceptual design and cost-efficiency considerations, and is used for gradual upgrades from development to product launch. This one is basically the same as Vultr’s $3.5 per month.

Another piece of news is that Linode provides a non-stop migration method.

Live Migrations at Linode

From its introduction, it is also used for disaster recovery. When the hardware is maintained, it can be serviced without downtime.

I have also used Linode’s VPS for many years, and the price of his home is still good.

Should I switch to another one?

Maybe I need to do a comparison to see the performance of the basic models of these three, so happy decision.
