Bill & Clemens,
to have a sharable CouchDB server image on DO is what I have been =
looking at, too.

Wrote an article while working on this compareing AWS AMI or =
DigitalOcean, and intended to continuou as soon as 2-0 /1.7 is here
https://medium.com/p/b7b320fb6bae/ <https://medium.com/p/b7b320fb6bae/>

The idea of doing build for each server is old fasion, the CouchDB =
server should be a server image.
DO is the simple version of AWS when it comes to these things
