"Soft Launch" of new Gen5 Virtualization Platform
“Soft Launch” of Our New Gen5 Virtualization Platform
We’re excited to announce the addition of Self-Deployed / Self-Managed VPS server plans to our lineup — designed for use with popular web stack deployment tools such as Ploi, Laravel Forge, ServerPilot, and RunCloud.
This long-requested feature gives developers and agencies the flexibility to meet the needs of specific clients or projects while leveraging our proven server and network infrastructure. With these plans, you have full control over deployment and management — whether through your preferred deployment tool or directly via Ubuntu’s apt-get to install packages of your choice.
Enhanced Control in the Updated Dashboard
Our updated Dashboard makes managing your Self-Managed VPS easier than ever:
-
View full server details, including plan level and resource usage (CPU/RAM graphs).
-
Upgrade or downgrade services at any time.
-
Manage backups with ease.
-
Start, stop, restart, or reboot your VPS on demand.
-
Redeploy with a fresh Ubuntu OS install in just a few clicks — perfect for quickly re-purposing a server with a new stack.
Early Launch Notes
As this is a soft launch, some areas of our website and Knowledge Base are still being expanded. We’re working on new articles and a complete public site refresh. Thank you for your patience — and please reach out with any questions in the meantime.
