New DigitalOcean Pricing (July 2022)
Starting from July 2022 DigitalOcean will be updating their prices for new and existing customers across a range of services they provide, the largest % increases are for managed databases and the "Basic" droplet range but there are price increases across a wide range of products.
For a long time Vultr, Linode & DigitalOcean have been in-step with one another when it came to pricing, will Vultr & Linode follow suit and increase their prices too, or will they take this opportunity to differentiate themselves from DigitalOcean? We will see over the coming months.
Update 2022-06-28: Vultr released a blog post comparing their prices with the new DigitalOcean prices which suggests they are not going to update their prices at this time: read here
The tables below can be used to give an overview of how much your monthly DigitalOcean bill will increase by.
