I know I look back and cringe at things I have done or said in the past. Times change and people change. What we once thought of as perfectly fine behavior 10-30 years ago may not be today.

It seems like DO offers plain VMs that you can use for whatever you need. In that respect it seems more similar to AWS and Azure than Heroku. It provides you the infrastructure to run your apps. The way you deploy and manage them is up to you. Heroku in my experience abstracts things further so that you don't spin up your own VM. Instead you use Heroku's UI and tools to install applications and use Heroku's resources. Heroku attempts to help developers focus on apps instead of infrastructure. From what I understand you could build something like Heroku on Digital Ocean. I may be mistaken though. I'm not an expert in Digital Ocean so I am not sure if they offer a platform-like experience similar to Heroku.](https://hashnode.com/forums/thread/what-is-the-difference-between-digital-ocean-and-heroku-is-it-simply-a-wrapper-of-awsazure/comment/5ba3581e328d3aa7677e285b) Comment · Thread · Sep 20, 2018 · 2 · [What is the difference between Digital ocean and Heroku?

I would agree that 1.0 to 2.0 was rough, but 2.0 to 2.1 was a breeze and I don't have any issues using it. Of course everyone has to evaluate what will work for them. I'd be more worried if it stopped changing. With the way things change so fast I hope dotnetcore will change and adapt to stay competitive with other frameworks.](https://hashnode.com/forums/thread/when-can-we-really-expect-net-core-to-be-a-real-player-in-dot-net-world-i-mean-it-changes-a-lot-right-now-and-learning-it-for-now-is-a-waste-of-time-i-believe/comment/5b7e9a4e5809f2be2a704da3) Comment · Thread · Aug 23, 2018 · 1 · [When can we really expect .Net Core to be a real player in dot net world?
