Connectors

Infrastructure connectors

One license per infrastructure — one cluster or one management endpoint, unlimited VMs and customers.

One production connector today — Apache CloudStack. Proxmox VE, OpenStack, VMware, OpenNebula and zVirt are on the roadmap (early access / pre-order).

Apache CloudStack

The production connector behind vnic.cloud: a scoped API client drives provisioning, power actions, scaling, storage, backups, console and networking end to end.

Reference: Apache CloudStack 4.23 at vnic.cloud. Other versions: contact sales.

  • Provisioning pipeline

    New VMs provision through an automated, resumable pipeline with automatic rollback if a step fails.

  • Power & lifecycle actions

    Start, stop, force-stop, reboot, reinstall OS, reset password and delete, each backed by an auditable job.

  • Vertical scaling

    Adjust a running VM's vCPU, RAM and disk in place, manually or automatically by load.

  • Data volumes

    Attach and detach extra data disks on a running VM, billed by GB-hour.

  • Backups

    VM backups run on CloudStack's native Backup & Recovery engine, billed by GB-hour retained.

  • Snapshots

    Capture and roll back a VM's full state on demand or on a schedule.

  • Browser console

    A browser-based VNC console, no client software required.

  • Offering & template sync

    VM plans and OS templates stay in sync with the infrastructure, refreshed every 15 minutes.

  • IP, NAT & firewall

    Every VM gets a dedicated public IP with 1:1 static NAT and a self-service firewall.

  • State reconciliation

    A background loop keeps platform records in sync with real infrastructure state, repairing drift automatically.

Licensing

How licensing counts infrastructures

One license = one infrastructure = one cluster or one management endpoint. VMs and customers are unlimited under each license.

  • One Apache CloudStack region = one license.
  • Two separate Proxmox VE clusters = two licenses.
  • Unlimited VMs and unlimited customers under each license.

Bring-your-own CloudStack for resellers

Letting resellers bring and sell their own CloudStack infrastructure through the platform is under architectural evaluation.
