> Digital Ocean are one of the most popular VPS hosts in the world

Where is the proof of this? Any hard data on customer account numbers or growth?

There are lots of solid VPS providers out there. I don't see why Digital Ocean gets so much hype.

Currently, they are 21st in the world for web facing computers[1]. The growth has been pretty good, too.
