Quick links

  • Quickstart in 5 minutes — sign up, top up, and launch your first VM.
  • API reference — every REST endpoint across auth, compute, and storage.
  • cloudnx CLI — Cobra-based command-line interface with configure, instance, iam, billing, and S3 commands.
  • IAM concepts — how root, IAM users, groups, policies, and access keys fit together.

What CloudNx is

A single-region cloud platform built and operated in India. We run customer VMs on bare-metal hardware via Proxmox, expose an EC2-style API, and charge in INR with GST-compliant invoicing. The runtime surface and behaviour mirrors AWS so existing tooling — Terraform, Pulumi, the AWS CLI signing pattern — works with minimal changes.

Who CloudNx is for

  • Indian startups & SMBs who want INR-priced infrastructure with predictable per-minute billing.
  • Solo developers migrating from DigitalOcean / Vultr / AWS who want a saner billing experience.
  • Compliance-sensitive workloads that need DPDP-aligned audit logs and a contract with an Indian entity.

What ships today

  • Bare-metal VMs on Proxmox with NVMe storage (4 plans: Nano, Small, Medium, Large)
  • Browser SSH console (xterm.js + WebSocket)
  • Auto Scaling Groups with HAProxy load balancing
  • S3-compatible object storage on MinIO
  • AWS-style IAM (users, groups, 5 managed + custom policies, MFA, password policy)
  • Razorpay top-ups, autopay, GST-compliant tax invoices
  • DPDP-compliant audit log of every state-changing API call
