Today we are shipping the new Joy platform: a Carbon-inspired design system, a dashboard that shows live CPU, RAM and network data straight from the hypervisor, automated Ubuntu and Windows deployments with the static IP configured before you get the email, and a REST API for everything.
Highlights
- Deploy in under 90 seconds in Noida, Mumbai, Chennai, Singapore or the USA.
- Prices in your currency, billed at USD rates; Razorpay for India, PayPal / cards / crypto internationally.
- Hourly billing from your wallet for test boxes; monthly to annual cycles with up to 15% off.
- Custom builds with sliders for vCPU, RAM and NVMe, quoted live.
- Help desk with email replies, a public status page with 90-day history and status.json.
- Marketplace for verified hardware, VPS capacity and software, with escrow for hardware above $500.
- REST API v1 with scoped Bearer tokens — see API integration.
What changed under the hood
The platform now runs as a cluster: a core, anycast edge nodes and a collector per region that talks to the Compute Fabric locally. Pages for anonymous visitors are cached at the edge; the console reads live data from Redis. New regions are added with a single bootstrap command, which is how Chennai and the US region came online.
Migration notes
Existing servers, IPs and invoices carried over unchanged. Legacy /api/connect tokens keep working; new automation should use v1. If you spot a bug, open a ticket — we read every one.
