Hi,
First of all Digital Ocean is perfect for my few clients… and I have finally migrated everything from Linode.
I have all my applications monitored and automated (e.g. if a process dies or goes out of control it’s restarted / all services and bespoke apps are restarted on reboot). Basically I want my systems to monitor and “fix” themselves.
One potential issue I don’t see a work around for is… what if the server shutdown for X reason (not done on purpose - maybe a kernel panic)? Do you have automated reboots like Linode with Lassie? Or an alternative suggestion?
Thanks

I am beginning to think that I may need another droplet… One that checks on all my server periodically and then “makes decisions” if to power-on and notify of potential issues… or I start load balancing across my servers and feel confident that 2 wont go down in multiple locations… I guess if they do we all have bigger problems :-)
