Can you explain what you mean by this?

DigitalOcean does not have VPC; they've had a backplane of "private network IPs" isolated merely to all DigitalOcean customers. This month they instead changed their underlying system behavior (WTF) to isolate their private IPs to your account. So they also just broke that for their customers. On top of that--can you firewall/segment off that private network to certain machines? Nah. Can you talk to other customers' machines over this private network. Nah. It's a bad, partial solution for limited use cases.
AWS also has a managed solution for MariaDB, MySQL, Oracle, Postgres, and MS SQL. DigitalOcean has an emoji shrug.
