Developer-focused cloud VPS platform acquired by Akamai for $900M in 2022; affordable Linux server hosting in 11 global regions competing with DigitalOcean as simpler AWS alternative.
Linode is a cloud computing platform providing virtual private servers (VPS), managed Kubernetes (LKE), object storage, managed databases, and bare metal servers to developers, startups, and businesses as a simpler, more affordable alternative to AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Founded in 2003 by Christopher Aker in Galloway, New Jersey, Linode was acquired by Akamai Technologies (NASDAQ: AKAM) in 2022 for $900 million and rebranded to Akamai Cloud — but continues to operate its developer-focused cloud platform under the Linode brand in many contexts.
OpsLevel is a developer portal and service catalog for tracking service ownership, maturity scorecards, and production readiness across microservices.
OpsLevel is a developer portal platform that gives engineering organizations visibility into the services they operate, who owns them, and how mature they are relative to internal engineering standards. At its core, OpsLevel maintains a service catalog that maps every microservice, repository, and infrastructure component to a team owner, populating metadata automatically from integrations with GitHub, GitLab, PagerDuty, Datadog, and cloud providers. This catalog becomes the authoritative source of truth for answering questions like who to contact about a service, what tier of reliability it requires, and what dependencies it has — questions that are often unanswerable at engineering organizations that have grown past the point where everyone knows everything.
