Custom images are only supported on self-hosted instances of Ephemeral.

You can only create custom images for Oracle.

Ephemeral uses images to create an empty database. Ephemeral provides base images for different versions of its supported databases.

For Oracle, you can add custom images to use to create Ephemeral databases.

You manage custom images from the Custom Images list on the User Settings page. To display the User Settings page:

  1. Click your user image at the top right of Ephemeral.

  2. In the menu, click User Settings.
