Stemcells

BOSH produces official stemcells for popular operating systems and infrastructures. For infrastructures that support it, light stemcells are a more efficient way to reference stemcells that we have pre-uploaded and shared within the IaaS.

For more information about stemcells, please see the following documentation.

Ubuntu Noble

Beta

The Noble stemcell is currently in beta, and is for testing use only.
