We've been working on this for some time. We announced earlier in the year that we want to offer this type of a managed service and we will start with one engine for now. Disclosure: I lead Products at DigitalOcean.
Hi there, this is Shiv - I am the VP of Product at DigitalOcean. Thanks for asking about pricing. We are still working out the pricing details. I can tell you it won't be just the cost of the Droplet because this is a managed service with lots of additional features that you would not get with the current Droplet product.
