Tags (for grouping Droplets)

Quake AI concept: Server Groups

  • DigitalOcean uses tags as a grouping/selection mechanism (filtering, bulk actions, auto-inclusion in firewall/LB configs) rather than OpenStack Nova server groups that implement affinity/anti-affinity placement policies.
  • No documented user-facing placement policy (affinity/anti-affinity) is exposed via tags; tags are for organization and targeting actions, unlike OpenStack server groups which influence scheduling decisions.
  • DigitalOcean’s tags API requires canonical capitalization in the URL (e.g., /v2/tags/PROD/resources), which is a platform-specific behavior not typically present in OpenStack resource tagging.
  • Bulk actions on Droplets can be initiated across resources sharing a tag via DigitalOcean API endpoints, whereas OpenStack server groups are separate resources with policies and memberships managed via Nova.
