All droplets are hosted on one hypervisor on a RAID disk array and are not replicated automatically. You can however set up HA/fail-over yourself: <a href=“https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-choose-a-redundancy-plan-to-ensure-high-availability”>https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-choose-a-redundancy-plan-to-ensure-high-availability</a>.
