:date: May 2026

:memo: Summary: Below you will find all the guides created or updated in May 2026

:light_bulb: Unless otherwise noted, all the guides below are translated for all our subsidiaries.


Highlights — May 2026

:books: New documentation platform: docs.ovhcloud.com

Our documentation has moved to an all‑new platform, docs.ovhcloud.com, based on a new repository. New features:

  • Faster navigation and search
  • AI‑enhanced search
  • Fewer locales for simplified maintenance
  • Geographically‑targeted content (see below)
  • Improved SEO
  • More formats and features

We are already working on more upcoming features. If you spot an issue — broken link, missing content, display problem — feel free to contact us in our Webex room. Your feedback helps us fix things quickly.

:globe_showing_europe_africa: Now available: region‑specific documentation for Web Cloud

Readers can now select their commercial region — Europe/Africa, Canada, or Asia‑Pacific — directly within our online guides, and the content automatically adapts. Product availability, links, and server names now match what is actually offered in the reader’s region, and this is reflected in all guide languages.

For now, this only applies to Web Cloud products — other product lines do not require regional adaptation. When assisting a customer, direct them to the region selector: after the first selection it collapses at the bottom‑right of the page and remains accessible to change the region at any time.

Example guides: Improve email security with a DKIM record · Migrate your website and associated services to OVHcloud

Kudos to B. K., who vibe‑coded the feature :slightly_smiling_face:
