Jetstream2 announcements and system updates
The latest news, updates, and announcements from the Jetstream2 team.
Jetstream2 GPU Maintenance Policy
Jetstream2 GPU resources will be implementing a regular monthly maintenance window to ensure the optimal performance and reliability of our GPU resources.
Starting June 2025, the monthly maintenance window will be the first Tuesday of every month from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM Eastern Time (ET).

Jetstream2 resource availability dashboard
Jetstream2's resource offerings are robust, but in times of high demand, we may run low on larger instance flavors and public (floating) IP addresses.
To help keep our community informed of Jetstream2's current capacity, we've created a dashboard showing vacant resources available for immediate use. If a given resource has a yellow or red numerical value, you may not be able to create one at that moment, but check back later as these numbers fluctuate throughout the day. Please note: This data is not perfectly real-time—there is a display delay of approximately 5 minutes.

Coming soon: Multi-card GPUs
With an increasing number of projects in the AI space, the last few months have seen an uptick in demand for Jetstream2's GPU flavors, as well as increasing requests for multi-card GPUs.
To help meet this need, our engineers are currently working to install new hardware that will broaden the amount and variety of GPU resources Jetstream can offer. We'll be introducing new multi-card GPU flavors that will be available on a limited basis by usage approval.
We anticipate these new GPUs being online in late spring 2025. Be on the lookout for a coming announcement with more details!
Sunsetting support for Rocky Linux 8
With the release of RHEL/Rocky Linux 10 on the horizon and Rocky Linux 9 nearly three years old, Jetstream2 will no longer update the Rocky Linux 8 build in our featured images pipeline.
Users can still create instances from this remaining image and are welcome to bring in their own Rocky Linux 8 images; however, Jetstream2 will consider this version to be in "maintenance only" status after the retirement.
