Release Note

Last verified 11 Aug 2026

DigitalOcean Kubernetes (DOKS) now includes an optional peer-to-peer OCI registry plugin in public preview. The plugin uses Spegel to mirror container image layers across cluster nodes, so a node can pull layers from a peer that already has them instead of the origin registry. This reduces the number of pulls that leave the cluster, lowers your exposure to external registries’ rate limits, and speeds up image pulls on clusters that reuse the same images across many nodes.

The plugin is disabled by default and is available on new clusters running Kubernetes 1.36 or later.
