In 2003 Uretsky founded his first company ServerStack, a managed hosting provider, with his brother Moisey Uretsky. The company was a precursor to DigitalOcean. Prior to starting ServerStack, Uretsky worked for another managed hosting company called Like Whoa. In 2012, Uretsky and the other cofounders graduated from the
Techstars incubator program in
Boulder, Colorado. They launched the first version of DigitalOcean’s product the same year. In June 2018, Uretsky stepped down as CEO of DigitalOcean and was succeeded by former
Citrix CEO
Mark Templeton. He remained on the company’s board. == References ==
