Load balancers for Digital Ocean
This interests me:
https://www.digitalocean.com/products/load-balancer/
Depending on pricing, ease of setup, and API integration it could steal some AWS thunder.

Well in my opinion it's nearly always better to implement something like that yourself, but of course if you want a managed load balancer this could be a good fit. If it is like the first gen AWS LB it's next to useless though, because it couldn't handle traffic spikes well.
I'm pretty excited about it. A lot of customers have been asking for it for some time now.
How does it handle traffic spikes within a short time frame? (seconds)
I haven't been able to play with it yet myself, but I'll be sure to give it a solid beating when I can
Great addition... hopefully has native HTTP/2 HTTPS support ?
DO fan here. Linode have these already, any feedback on that?
