I've found DO is great for running RabbitMQ as a hub to process background jobs across multiple VMs. It's relatively simple to hit DO's API to spin up new "droplets" as needed so your queue never gets overloaded. I use this architecture to create over 1MM website thumbnails per day across 10+ VMs and it's been extremely reliable.

I currently use App Engine to handle front end requests and storage so I can't comment as much there, but DO's integration with Mesosphere sounds promising for scaling and reliability.

I'd be curious to learn more about the architecture you're using, as I have similar needs but in another space. How do I contact you?
