> Note: the servers are oversized for the load we’re currently seeing. The reason for that is that we tried to solve a production issue by increasing the server specs. It didn’t solve the problem, and now we can’t down-size the servers without re-provisioning them.
Too late for them, but if you find yourself similarly needing to increase the capacity to solve a produciton issue on DO: you can upgrade CPU/RAM without increasing disk size. This allows you to downgrade later if you end up over-provisioning.
