Applications, service hostnames and an improved console

#

We added Applications for supported Linux VPS and Cloud VPS servers. Choose an application while ordering or install it later, then manage health, logs, access, updates, private registries and your own Docker Compose projects from the control panel.

New services can receive free vpsnet.cloud hostnames, and application endpoints can use managed DNS and HTTPS.

The web terminal now includes VPSnet AI assistance. Cloud VPS console and rescue add noVNC and ISO recovery, while VPS rescue can attach the customer filesystem.

We also improved application progress and notifications, container discovery, selective application-data restore from existing backups, domain ordering and general control-panel reliability.

Server power and operating system reinstall controls now pause while a managed application install or maintenance action is running. Console access remains available, and rescue mode can still stop a stuck application action when recovery is needed.

The applications toolkit has since grown in the same panel:

  • a security view with public routes and ports, SSL readiness, outbound policy and your own credentials — stored values are never displayed;
  • an access view showing exactly how the application is reachable, with a plain explanation whenever an endpoint is down;
  • continuous SSL certificate monitoring with expiry and renewal status;
  • clearer health diagnostics with built-in container logs — no SSH needed for a quick look;
  • CPU, memory and network history for the application and each of its containers;
  • after an update, one-click return to the previous application version while its restore point is valid;
  • update notifications by email and in the panel — once per version;
  • Docker Compose recipes with images pinned to exact digests, adoption of already running Compose projects only with your confirmation, and restore of individual files from stored nightly backups on supported services.
