About DigitalOcean AMS2

DigitalOcean AMS2 in Amsterdam, Netherlands is a legacy DigitalOcean cloud infrastructure location for existing Amsterdam-region workloads. AMS2 supports DigitalOcean IaaS deployments for customers with existing resources in the facility, while new regional growth is directed to AMS3. DigitalOcean identifies AMS2 and SFO1 as legacy datacenters with restricted resource creation because the facilities have no remaining physical space to expand. Existing Droplet users can continue creating additional Droplets in AMS2, while DigitalOcean recommends AMS3 for new Amsterdam deployments.

AMS2 is a cloud-service location rather than a retail colocation product. Customers deploy infrastructure through DigitalOcean’s platform instead of leasing cabinets, cages, or private suites.
