Cross-datacenter private networking

Private networking is currently limited to droplets running in the same datacenter. It would be great if it would be possible for the droplets to connect to the internal IP's in other datacenters too!

    At the very least it should work NYC 1 to NYC 3.

    This is a fundamental feature for reliable and redundant cloud applications. To have a HA cluster with docker swarm, kubernetes, mongodb and many other software, you need at least three nodes in three AZ: without this feature real HA can't be reached for these tools.

    This is highly needed for true redundant setups across regions. Would be awesome to see this implemented. Traffic could count towards the total outgoing bandwidth

    It would be no problem for me to count the traffic between datacenters against the droplets traffic limit or pay extra for it.

    Yes! Please, please. I want to have a backup server in a different region and/or datacenter but be able to synchronize files, database,etc privately.
