Supported operating systems
Rackspace Public Cloud provides the following supported images. On the same date that a distributor updates an operating system (OS), Rackspace updates services to support the OS update. We continue to support earlier versions of the OS for a limited time after the OS update.
We do not support OSs marked as end-of-life (EOL) by its distributor.
We support current versions of the following OSs:
- CentOS
- Debian®
- Fedora® *
- Ubuntu® operating systems
- Fortinet® (Cloud Servers only) *
- Windows® Server® 2008 R2
- Windows Server 2012 R2
- Windows Server 2016 (OnMetal Servers only)
Note: Those operating systems with an asterisk (*) to the right of the name are not supported at the Managed Operations service level.
