DigitalOcean provides a variety of images that you can use to create Droplets and Kubernetes clusters, like Linux and FreeBSD distributions, container distributions, 1-Click Applications, and a container image registry.
In addition, you can take snapshots for on-demand disk images of Droplets and volumes, enable backups for automatic weekly Droplet images, and upload custom images to create Droplets with other operating systems or pre-packaged libraries. You can manage the images you create or upload to your account in the Images section of the control panel.
Debian 11.0 base image is now available in the control panel and via the API.
You can now assign floating IP addresses to Droplets that use custom images.
The Ubuntu 16.04 and Fedora 32 images have been removed from the API.
