title: 'Preferring diskless flavors in SCS'
author:
- 'Kurt Garloff'
---

## Purpose

Sovereign Cloud Stack (SCS) downgraded the formerly mandatory flavors with
root disks to recommended ones when the flavor naming standard version 3
became effective in the fall 2023. For many users using flavors that comprise
a root disk is still the standard and at least when using CLI tooling,
it's also simpler.

This article documents how the diskless flavors can be used with common
IaC tooling.

## Link to blog article

We covered this in a blog article before, for which we
[link here](https://scs.community/2023/08/21/diskless-flavors/) to our
old web site for now.
