Compute

Build your application the way you want with our suite of compute products including VMs, managed containers, PaaS, and serverless functions.

Droplets

DigitalOcean Droplets are Linux-based virtual machines (VMs). Each Droplet you create is a new server you can use. Choose from a variety of Droplet plans to get right resources (like CPU, RAM, and storage) for your workload.

DigitalOcean Kubernetes

DigitalOcean Kubernetes (DOKS) is a managed Kubernetes service that lets you deploy Kubernetes clusters without the complexities of handling the control plane and containerized infrastructure. Clusters are compatible with standard Kubernetes toolchains and integrate natively with DigitalOcean Load Balancers and volumes.

App Platform

App Platform is a fully managed Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) that deploys applications from Git repositories or container images. It automatically builds, deploys, and scales components while handling all underlying infrastructure.

Functions

DigitalOcean Functions is a function as a service (FaaS) offering that lets you run your local serverless code in the cloud using Node.js, Python, Go, or PHP without managing any backend infrastructure.

Cloudways

Cloudways is a managed cloud hosting platform where teams can build, deploy, and scale web applications.

Latest Updates

Upcoming Changes

• App Platform’s XL build resources (8 CPUs and 20 GiB of memory during builds) are now enabled for all apps by default. The xl-build flag is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Remove xl-build from your app spec to avoid potential errors once the flag is fully retired.

• AMD Instinct MI350X GPUs are now available in RIC1 by contract only in 1- and 8-GPU configurations for single- and multi-node GPU Droplets. To create GPU Droplets with MI350X GPUs, contact sales. Learn more about GPU Droplet plans.

• NVIDIA B300 GPUs are now available in RIC1 as a private preview, by contract only. B300 GPUs are available in 1- and 8-GPU configurations for GPU Droplets via the control panel and via the API using slugs gpu-b300x1-288gb (1 GPU) and gpu-b300x8-2304gb (8 GPUs). Learn more about GPU Droplet plans.

13 March 2026

• Namespace access keys are now available for Functions. They provide user-specific credentials per namespace, so you can create a key for each user or application and revoke access individually. Keys linked to removed team members are revoked automatically. The legacy shared namespace token is deprecated and will be removed on 3 June 2026. During the migration period, both methods work. After 3 June 2026, legacy tokens will no longer authenticate.
