Virtuozzo Cloud Portal Overview

This guide will provide you with the information on the Virtuozzo Cloud portal and will help you get acquainted with the offered functionality.

If you prefer, check the high-level overview video guide:

Below, we’ll go over each of the main sections available on the panel:

• Dashboard
• Clients
• IaaS
• PaaS
• Databases
• Kubernetes
• WordPress

Additionally, we’ll check account settings and other functionality.

Dashboard

On the My Dashboard tab, you can view all the currently deployed cloud services for the account.

You can click Manage for the required service to:

• IaaS - access the appropriate product details (log in to panel, view access credentials, analyze usage metrics)
• PaaS - go to the PaaS page and access the PaaS dashboard

Clients

The Clients section is available for service providers and allows them to create and manage customers to whom they sell Virtuozzo Cloud.

The Configuration tab provides signup and login links for the clients and allows to apply “white labeling” through adjusting platform name and logo.

In order to manually create a new account, click the + button on the Clients tab and fill out the following information:

• First Name
• Last Name
• Company
• Email Address
• Phone Number
• Password
• Address 1/Address 2
• City
• State/Region
• Post Code
• Country

Tick the “Send the new account information message” checkbox and click Save to add and notify the client. Once created, the customer will get access to their own Virtuozzo Cloud account with the same interface as described in this guide (without the Clients section).

For existing clients, you can edit their data and use the Log In As Client option to enter the customer platform view. For example, to perform support or troubleshooting actions.

IaaS

The Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) tab includes OpenStack-based infrastructure management functionality, which allows the creation of scalable virtual machines, Kubernetes clusters, and more.

Use the Add Project button at the top of the page to create a new project. Select the required region, provide custom project name, and agree to the terms of service to proceed.

All existing IaaS projects on the account are listed at the bottom of the page. You can manage each one to get a login link, access credentials information, track metrics, etc.

PaaS

You can access the application management functionality via the Platform as a Service (PaaS) section. Create container-based environments for your DevOps processes or automatically install pre-packaged applications from the built-in Marketplace.

Click the Log In To Panel button to be redirected to the PaaS dashboard - a powerful UI, where you can start working on your DevOps applications.

Databases

On the Databases tab, you can install various pre-packaged database solutions. It is an application-focused integration that works like Marketplace, offering multiple database stacks (MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, etc.), different clustered topologies (including multi-region setups), and various automation add-ons (auto-scaling, backups, corruption diagnostic, etc.).

Alongside the database clustering solutions, additional automation packages (add-ons) can be installed from this tab to enhance your experience when working with databases - for example, Database Cluster Recovery Add-On.

Currently, the following database packages are available on the page:

• MySQL / MariaDB / Percona Cluster (Primary-Secondary, Primary-Primary, Galera)
• MariaDB Multi-Region Cluster
• PostgreSQL Primary-Secondary Cluster
• PostgreSQL Multi-Region Cluster
• MongoDB Replica Set
• Multi-Region Redis Cluster
• Auto-Scalable Couchbase CE Cluster
• Database Cluster Recovery Add-On
