What's New?

An official patch has been released to improve network connectivity on CentOS 6 and CentOS 7 instances. For more information, see Fixing Network Connectivity Issues on CentOS 6 and CentOS 7 Instances.


  • You can now provision a DirectLink connection to another Outscale user through the creation of a private virtual interface in their account. Conversely, you can use the DirectLink connection of another Outscale user who has created a private virtual interface in your account. For more information, see Creating a Hosted Private Virtual Interface and Accepting a Hosted Private Virtual Interface.

  • You can now launch new types of instances equipped with the v5 "Skylake" Intel processor: tinav5.cXrY type for custom instances, or m5 and c5 types for preconfigured instances. For more information, see Instance Types.
