Our Dashboard
The dashboard is the central interface for managing your infrastructure.

The main workspace displays resource panels that provide summaries and direct actions for managing infrastructure components.
VPS Servers
The ‘VPS Servers’ panel displays your newest servers and their information. Use the ‘Create Server’ button to deploy a new server, or select ‘View Server Overviews’ to access detailed server information, including views for resource usage, metadata, archived servers, and snapshots.
Load Balancers
The ‘Load Balancers’ panel provides an overview of your load balancers that allows you to distribute traffic across multiple servers. Use the ‘Create LB’ button to configure a new load balancer.

Web Application Firewalls
The ‘Web Application Firewalls’ panel displays your configured WAF instances used to protect applications from unwanted traffic. Use the ‘Create WAF’ button to define and deploy new firewall rules.

All Events
The ‘All Events’ section provides a complete and searchable log of all account and API activity. It allows you to review detailed records of actions such as server operations, configuration changes, and automated processes across your infrastructure.

Scripts
The ‘Scripts’ section allows you to upload and manage scripts for use across servers. Scripts uploaded here can be deployed and run on multiple servers directly from the dashboard without using SSH.
