Simulations (Public Preview)
DigitalOcean’s Simulations, currently in public preview, runs pay-as-you-go workloads for testing and modeling scenarios. It handles the computational heavy lifting for simulations without requiring you to provision or manage underlying infrastructure, letting you focus purely on the simulation logic and results.
This fits teams already comfortable with DigitalOcean’s ecosystem who need flexible, on-demand compute for experimental or bursty simulation tasks. The main trade-off is the lack of a free tier; every simulation incurs costs from the start, so budgeting for usage is essential even during the preview phase.
