For your Debian and Centos images — What is the minor version?

We automatically update our images to be the latest minor version within two weeks after the release. This means that our existing Debian 9 image will always contain the latest Debian 9.X version within two weeks after its release.

More details::

For Debian and Centos, the versioning scheme is MAJOR.MINOR, e.g. Debian 9.1 is Debian with major version 9 and minor version 1.

For both Debian and Centos, updating a minor version (e.g. Debian 9.3 -> 9.4) is done implicitly when updating your software packages. Therefore, the minor version will change during the lifetime of your server. To avoid confusion, our image descriptions do not contain the minor version, only the major one (e.g. "Debian 9" instead of "Debian 9.1").
