Droplet Tutorials

DigitalOcean Droplets are Linux-based virtual machines (VMs) that run on top of virtualized hardware. Each Droplet you create is a new server you can use, either standalone or as part of a larger, cloud-based infrastructure.


Turn your Droplet into desktop computer that you can access using a remote desktop client.
Use cloud-init to deploy multiple Droplets that automatically configure themselves with new users and nginx.
Create a new Droplet with our recommended configuration for improved security, reliability, and monitoring.
