Built for production infrastructure

Every feature you need to run a cloud hosting platform, from instance deployment to billing automation.

Instance Management

Full VM lifecycle management - deploy, suspend, resume, reinstall, and destroy. Configure CPU, RAM, storage, and bandwidth per instance with flexible resource plans.

VNC Console

Real-time browser-based console access to any instance via noVNC WebSocket proxy. No SSH required - manage instances directly from the control panel, even during boot.

Live Migration

Move running VMs between hypervisors with zero downtime. Cold migration support with abort capability. Real-time progress tracking via WebSocket during the migration process.

High Availability

HA monitoring with heartbeat detection, automatic instance evacuation when a hypervisor fails, and IPMI-based fencing to prevent split-brain scenarios.

VPC Networking

Isolated private networks using overlay networking. Span VPCs across hypervisors with keepalived redundancy. Full IPv4 and IPv6 subnet management.

NAT Gateways

Managed NAT gateways for VPC instances with per-GB bandwidth billing, configurable accounting (upload/download/both), and automatic overage enforcement.

New in v2.1

Load Balancers

Managed HAProxy load balancers with SSL termination, health checks, session stickiness, and connection draining. Configurable frontends, backends, and routing rules.

New in v2.1

Managed Databases

Deploy fully managed MySQL, MariaDB, and PostgreSQL databases with read replicas, health monitoring, metrics dashboards, parameter groups, automated backups, and hourly billing.

Per-Instance Firewalls

iptables-based firewall rules managed per instance. Users create inbound/outbound rules from the control panel with real-time application via the slave agent.

New in v2.2.1

Streaming Backups

Stream instance backups directly to S3, SFTP, FTP, or any rclone remote with zero local staging. External snapshots for running VMs, sparse qcow2 incrementals via dirty bitmaps, and automated retention via backup policies.

S3 Object Storage

MinIO-based S3-compatible object storage. User self-service bucket creation, access key management, bandwidth tracking, and quota enforcement with hourly billing.

Multiple Storage Backends

QCOW2 and Ceph RBD storage with multiple classes per hypervisor - HDD, SAS, SSD, and NVMe. Configurable I/O limits for read/write bytes and IOPS per instance plan.

New in v2.2.4

Payments & Billing

Built-in payments through Stripe, Razorpay, and PayPal. Customers top up credit, receive tax-compliant PDF invoices, and request refunds. Plus external billing (WHMCS, Blesta, HostBill, Paymenter) and self-provisioning resource packs.

New in v2.2.4

AI Assistant

Provision and manage resources in plain language. Guided chat flows create instances, networks, load balancers, databases, and Kubernetes clusters. Operators get a parallel assistant for platform administration.

New in v2.1

User Scripts

Bash, Python, and PowerShell automation scripts injected via cloud-init during instance deployment. Save reusable scripts and apply them to any new instance.

New in v2.1

Projects

Organize instances, VPCs, load balancers, S3 buckets, SSH keys, and user scripts into logical project groups. Filter and manage resources by project.

New in v2.1

Docker Manager

Deploy Docker apps (Grafana, WordPress, Uptime Kuma) directly onto instances from a community-driven catalog. One-click deploy with environment variables, port mapping, and real-time status.

REST API

Full CRUD API with JWT authentication and refresh tokens for instances, users, SSH keys, power actions, backups, and images. A comprehensive admin API now spans compute, networking, storage, billing, Kubernetes, databases, and platform settings for full automation.

New in v2.2.2

Volume Snapshots & Backups

Instant on-storage snapshots and full DR backups for block storage volumes, with two restore modes: in-place rollback or restore-to-new-volume.

New in v2.2.2

Self-Registration with CAPTCHA

Onboard customers without admin involvement. Cloudflare Turnstile or Google reCAPTCHA v2/v3, signed email verification, and post-verification top-up flow.

New in v2.2.2

Orphan VM Import

Adopt existing KVM domains as managed instances. Discovery scans libvirt for untracked qcow2 VMs, per-disk storage assignment with no file moves, MAC and IP preserved.

New in v2.2.5

Git Push-to-Deploy

Connect GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or Gitea and every push deploys automatically. Build detection via Nixpacks or Railpack with no Dockerfile, PR preview environments, zero-downtime rolling deployments, and automatic HTTPS.

New in v2.2.5

Live Platform Updates

Upgrade the platform directly from the admin panel. A real-time WebSocket console streams update progress and a version indicator always shows the current release.

Billing Models

Three ways to bill your customers

Choose the billing model that fits your business. Use one, two, or all three simultaneously - they operate independently.

External Billing

Integrate with your existing billing platform. Provisioning modules handle instance creation from external orders, with SSO for seamless user login.

Supported Platforms

  • WHMCS
  • Blesta
  • HostBill
  • Paymenter
Most Flexible

Built-in Billing

Hourly credit-based billing with integrated payment gateways. Customers top up directly via Stripe, Razorpay, or PayPal and get automated tax-compliant invoices - no external platform required.

Capabilities

  • Hourly billing calculations
  • Built-in card & wallet payments
  • Invoices, tax & refunds
  • Multi-currency & location pricing

Self-Provisioning

Resource pack allocation model. Assign users a pool of CPU, RAM, and storage, then let them create and destroy instances within their quota limits.

Capabilities

  • Resource pool allocation
  • User self-service creation
  • Quota enforcement
  • Bandwidth monitoring
