Moved a SaaS tool from Linode to DigitalOcean. Reason for the move was security driven. DO's K8S volumes are LUKS encrypted at rest by default; one less thing in your security controls to worry about. Prices are higher than Linode's, and have had some reliability issues occasionally with the LoadBalancer, but for the most part it works really well.

The SaaS tool was mostly cloud-agnostic, so the changeover was not terrible. Changing the deployments to use DO's CSI storage, setup secrets, deploy services. I stood up the entire infra on DO, then moved the DNS over one subdomain at a time.Took about 4 days to make the move, including validating everything, and finally cutting off Linode totally.
