I noticed that [Godaddy offers Discourse as one of their ‘cloud apps’](https://www.godaddy.com/pro/one-click-installation/discourse). Is there a reason I can select a 512MB/1CPU plan with them, but DigitalOcean requires ( **at minimum** ) 2048MB/2CPU? That’s quite the difference!

What am I missing, here?
