    Digital ocean doesn't rent out systems/instances with GPUs. The two different platforms serve different needs. DigitalOcean is great for VPS, web hosting, and webapps...but not for cloud computing machine learning and AI.

    Vast.ai is awesome if you are doing anything machine learning or AI and need a lot of computational power. It is docker based and is very close to having a bare metal experience with top of the line hardware.
