Our web-based control panel provides a convenient, point-and-click interface for managing Droplets. But for those times when you want to use the command line, we've got doctl. Our open source doctl utility is a helpful tool for managing Droplets and other resources from the command line. It can greatly reduce the amount of manual interaction with web-based interfaces needed for daily development and administrative tasks.

droplet = DropletKit::Droplet.new(
  names: ['sub-01.example.com', 'sub-02.example.com'],
  region: 'nyc3',
  size: '1gb',
  image: 'ubuntu-14-04-x64',
  ipv6: true,
  tags: ["web"]
)
client.droplets.create_multiple(droplet)

Create a DC/OS cluster with Terraform

DC/OS (the data center operating system) is an open-source, distributed operating system based on the Apache Mesos distributed systems kernel. DC/OS manages multiple machines – in the cloud or on-site – from a single interface; it also deploys containers, distributed services, and legacy applications into those machines and provides networking, service discovery, and resource management to keep the services running and communicating with each other.
