The DigitalOcean Newsletter

Read on for a monthly recap of all things DigitalOcean, including product updates, new tutorials, upcoming events, and more.



Product Updates

  • Memory-Optimized Droplets are now available for BLR1 data center region: Memory-Optimized Droplets went into General Availability (GA) last month and were available in the SFO3 and TOR1 data center regions. We are excited to announce that Memory-Optimized Droplets are now also available for the BLR1 data center region.

  • Droplet metadata endpoint for live migration: We released a Droplet metadata endpoint which returns whether or not a Droplet is scheduled for a live migration. The impact of live migrations on Droplets is minimal, so users now only receive direct notifications for migrations that require us to power down a Droplet, which (except in emergencies) we send 7 days in advance.

  • End of life for Ubuntu 19.10: On August 1, 2020, Ubuntu 19.10 reached its end of life and will not receive further updates. Per our image deprecation policy, you can only deploy the Ubuntu 19.10 Linux image via the API starting on August 1, 2020. We will remove the Ubuntu 19.10 image from the platform on September 1, 2020.

  • Marketplace updates:
    • Laravel Hosting is an open source PHP framework that provides a set of tools and resources to build modern PHP applications.
    • HarperDB is a distributed database focused on making data management easy.
    • Flipstarter is a 1-Click deployment on DigitalOcean, allowing you to start a campaign without advanced computer knowledge.
