Plain-language summary

We put Digitalocean 1 vCPU · 1 GB RAM (in Germany) through the same tests as every other server on 14 July 2026. Where it shines is the network path: ping 0.5 ms, download 1,692 Mbps, for a score of 91 out of 100. The weaker spot is compute (338 events/s), so demanding compute workloads are not its best fit. For a VPN, tunnel or proxy this is a strong choice — those workloads live on the network, not the processor. Compare it with other providers in the same country to find your best fit.
