Congrats DO team, very excited about this launch!<p>We (<a href="https://cloudron.io" rel="nofollow">https://cloudron.io</a>) submitted our image last month and it was tested and approved in a few days. Loved the fact that the DO team is so agile and the dev process to get ourselves listed was fairly trivial as well.<p>If someone has questions about how to create these 1-click images or the approval process, I am happy to answer them from a vendor point of view.
Happy to see this out and public!<p>We (Redash) had public AMIs for AWS and GCP for a long time now. But recently started the process of creating a proper marketplace listing with them and DigitalOcean. Needless to say that we're still working on the AWS and GCP listing, while the DigitalOcean one is already live. As with everything, they created a simple and nice experience for the vendors.
I'm confused for years there have been a large collection of 1-click options when logged in. It says here WordPress for instance is New but that has been there forever. Can someone explain how Marketplace currently is different than the 1 click options we have long already have? The main issue has been with WordPress which I imagine is your most popular 1 click option is that it runs on LAMP rather than LEMP (the more modern recommended option). Does this "new" version resolve that? Or am I missing something?
Eddie from the DigitalOcean DevRel team here. We're looking to partner with all the folks to help support and deliver open source and vendor software easily. Here to answer what I can.
Eddie, I think it would be neat if we could build vendor images by just supplying docker containers with maybe some type of config.<p>At Tonic (<a href="https://tonic.ai" rel="nofollow">https://tonic.ai</a>) we do on-prem deploys with docker containers and docker-compose. Its seamless and would be great to use that same flow for Digital Ocean marketplace.
That was a great move and congrats DO team! We (Countly, <a href="https://count.ly" rel="nofollow">https://count.ly</a>) have approach Digital Ocean a few months ago, and we had a very productive email exchange - after a few days, our product was on DO Marketplace.
