Foundry Platform Status

To make it easier to monitor the status of Foundry Cloud Platform, we've launched status.mlfoundry.com, and we now show status icons next to region IDs throughout the Foundry Console. Status icons indicate the current health of the region as Operational, Degraded Performance, Undergoing Planned Maintenance, or Unavailable. You can hover over the status icon for additional information and a link to the status page for full details. You can subscribe to updates from status.mlfoundry.com to be notified about any upcoming maintenance or active incidents.

Required SSH keys

Administrators can now set required SSH keys at the project level for telemetry and management purposes. When one or more SSH keys are marked as required, all new instances spun up within the project will include the required keys by default. When creating a new instance in the Foundry Console, the required key(s) will be preselected. When submitting a spot bid through the Foundry API, the required key(s) must be included in the launch specification for the request to succeed. You can find all required keys via the GET ssh-keys endpoint.

Intuitively manage your compute with the v2 API

The new v2 API makes it more intuitive to manage your spot compute programmatically and is up to 4x more performant. These performance improvements translate to the Foundry Console UI as well, where you can expect to see more consistent and significantly reduced load times.

With the v2 API, you can:

• Place and update bids with improved controls

• Get availability across regions

• Create and manage volumes and SSH keys seamlessly

• Coming soon: endpoints for reservations

To get started, check out our updated API quickstart guide and reference

With the launch of API v2, we plan to discontinue support for the v1 API on June 3rd, 2025. If you would like migration support from the Foundry team, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Ephemeral storage is now auto-mounted to instances

Ephemeral drives will now be automatically mounted at /mnt/local when your instances start up–no manual configuration required. Upon preemption, drives are automatically reformatted and remounted.

Important: If your startup scripts include code to mount ephemeral drives, you should update them to remove this step.

Reservations are now available in us-central-1b

You can now make self-serve reservations in the us-central-1b region for workloads that require uninterrupted access to compute. Reservations guarantee access to capacity for 3 hours to 2 weeks and are proactively healed in the case of hardware failures to mitigate interruptions. If you require a reservation longer than 2 weeks, reach out to our team!
