Plain-language summary

A hands-on test of Digitalocean 1 vCPU · 1 GB RAM running in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Where it shines is the network path: ping 0.5 ms, download 1,068 Mbps, for a score of 82 out of 100. The weaker spot is compute (345 events/s), so demanding compute workloads are not its best fit. That makes it a good pick for VPN and proxy nodes, where low latency and clean connectivity matter far more than raw CPU. As always, the numbers reflect this exact instance on the test date and may vary by node.
