Hello,
I wish to host my blog website developed on MEAN stack in digitalocean. For the blog, I will be uploading images to show it on my website. I would like to know whether I can store images in Ubuntu file system itself (droplet) instead of going for digitalocean space. Please someone confirm if this possible.
Thanks in advance.

It is possible. My droplet has ~25 GB of storage, so I would assume yours has that much, as well. You might use some sort of FTP (file transfer protocol) to transfer your html/css files, along with your image files. Depending on how you call the image files from your html/css, your file structure should conform. For example, if you have something like
<img src="myImg.jpg" alt="please reload>
then make sure “myImg.jpg” is in the same directory as your source html/css files. Good luck.
Heya,
There is no limitation that will prevent you from uploading the images, just keep an eye on your disk space usage as images tend to be disk space consuming. You can also think of a compression for the images to reduce their size.
You can upload your blog images directly to a directory on your DigitalOcean droplet using methods like scp, rsync, SFTP, or FTP.
