I notice that the pricing is very similar for extensions and application servers. Can you clarify that extension pricing is in addition to the core server hosting?

@filearts the extensions is a standalone server that can operate with or without an application server. Only our base server cost for application, load balancer and extensions are the same.

I would worry about making promises about scaling applications you don't know anything about...not every problem can be solved by adding more hardware. If someone is doing the business software equivalent of the travelling salesman then it doesn't matter how many dynos they spin up: it will be slow

Been working with these guys for 6 months now watching them build the platform and helping them figure out how to scale it on DO, pretty nice tech, smart kids (and I mean kids!) :)

So you're the person to talk to when interested in building something on top of DO?

We love what you're doing guys; we built all kind of things early on to use your API with Python, node.js and Go (things like https://github.com/devo-ps/dopy). We're currently trying to integrate DO deeper into devo.ps
