When will a CentOS 8 image be available for deployment on DigitalOcean Droplets?

Posted on October 13, 2019

Hi,

So I’m currently running CentOS 7 on my production Droplet, and I would like to create a CentOS 8 Droplet ASAP for testing purposes. When creating a new Droplet at any location, the CentOS 8 image is NOT available (I only see CentOS 7.6).

Thank you.

Hello, @janvitos

There was already such a discussion in this community question:

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/since-centos-8-is-released-when-we-can-expect-digitalocean-image-for-droplets

I will quote the reply from @sjmacjunkie “I opened a support ticket and they said pending CentOS releasing a cloud image for CentOS 8”

I hope it helps.

Good afternoon. Two months have passed, are there any changes?

Hmm, I cant find CentOS 8 or Streams. Someone said Vultr has it, looks interesting. I shall sign up and try it out
