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-buildflag is now deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Removexl-buildfrom your app spec to avoid potential errors once the flag is fully retired. -
DigitalOcean Managed Caching is being discontinued on 30 June 2025.
To replace Managed Caching, we are offering Managed Valkey, a Redis-compatible alternative with RDMA and higher throughput. All existing Managed Caching clusters automatically convert to Valkey clusters by 30 June 2025 during your upgrade window, retaining all data.
