Run Multiple OpenClaw AI Agents with Elastic Scaling and Safe Defaults — without Managing Infrastructure

OpenClaw, an open-source framework for building AI assistants, is now available on DigitalOcean's App Platform, providing a scalable and managed environment for operating multiple AI agents. As developers transition from local experiments to persistent, always-on assistants, they face challenges related to infrastructure management, scalability, and cost predictability. OpenClaw on DigitalOcean addresses these by offering elastic scaling, safe defaults, and instance-based pricing, allowing teams to scale their AI systems predictably without managing the underlying infrastructure. Users retain control over agent behavior and configuration while benefiting from a secure, managed container environment that simplifies operations and supports continuous integration. The platform supports different deployment modes, including web UI access via Tailscale and a headless mode, ensuring secure and isolated operation. This setup facilitates the growth of AI systems from single agents to a fleet, maintaining operational simplicity and cost control.
