Pricing Does the region change the price?

No. Compute, storage and networking are billed at the same rate in Greece, Spain and the USA, so the region is a data-residency decision rather than a cost one.

Pricing Is bandwidth or egress charged separately?

No. Bandwidth is unlimited and egress is not metered, so the monthly figure in the calculator is the figure on the invoice.

Pricing Is VAT included in the prices shown?

Prices are shown excluding VAT by default. The calculator has a VAT switch so you can see the gross figure, and the exported estimate states which basis was used.

Pricing Do you discount annual prepayment?

Yes. Paying twelve months up front reduces the effective monthly rate; the calculator shows both the monthly and the annual prepay figure side by side.

Pricing Which services are quoted rather than listed?

Object storage, GPU capacity and Veeam backup are quoted against the shape of the workload. Add them to an estimate and they appear as quoted lines.

Pricing Can I keep the estimate?

Yes. Export it as an Excel workbook or a PDF quote sheet, both of which carry the line items, the totals and the quote reference.

Partners Program How can I apply to the Antyxsoft Partners Program?

Complete the partner application form. A member of the Antyxsoft sales team contacts you and assists you through the rest of the process; the knowledge base covers the programme in detail.

Partners Program When am I charged for my customers’ services?

The billing cycle depends on the subscription plan you select. Monthly plans are billed monthly and annual plans annually, so the cycle can follow your own business requirements.

Partners Program How are my customers’ instances billed?

Customer instances are billed on the services they use, but all billing is handled at the partner level.

Partners Program Are my customers billed by me or directly by Antyxsoft?

Only partners are invoiced directly by Antyxsoft. Each partner manages billing for their own customers, with no involvement from us.

Partners Program How can I manage my customers’ subscriptions?

From the same panel you deploy in — the step-by-step instructions are in customer subscription management.

Partners Program Can I choose the location of my customers’ cloud infrastructure?

Yes. The location is selected during instance creation in the cloud portal.

Partners Program Does Antyxsoft provide technical support to partners?

Yes. Technical support is part of the programme, and partners also get a dedicated support team. The SLA detail is in our legal pages.

Cloud Compute How quickly can I deploy an instance?

Instances are provisioned in minutes from the control panel. Pick a plan, a location, an operating system and an optional one-click application, and the instance boots with networking already attached.

Cloud Compute Can I resize an instance later?

Yes. Plans can be changed as the workload grows; CPU and RAM changes require a reboot, and additional capacity can also be added as block storage volumes without downtime.

Cloud Compute Which operating systems are available?

Current Linux distributions and Windows Server images are provided. Linux images are included in the instance price, while Windows and other commercial licences are billed per instance.

Cloud Compute Do I get root or administrator access?

Yes. Instances are yours to configure — full root on Linux, full administrator on Windows — with SSH keys or console access from the panel.

Kubernetes Is the control plane managed for me?

Yes. Antyxsoft runs the control plane, including upgrades and high availability, so your team only manages workloads and node pools.

Kubernetes How does cluster autoscaling work?

Node pools scale between the minimum and maximum you set, adding nodes when workloads are unschedulable and removing them when capacity is idle.

Kubernetes Can clusters use private networking?

Yes. Clusters can be attached to a Virtual Private Cloud so nodes and services stay on isolated networks, with firewalls controlling ingress.

GPUs In what geographical regions can I deploy my GPUs?

GPU products are not available at this time. Support for GPU instances will be introduced soon, expanding access to high-performance computing resources for our users globally.

GPUs What can I use GPU capacity for?

Training and inference for AI and machine-learning models, rendering and other intensive parallel workloads. Capacity is dedicated rather than shared, and quoted against the shape of the workload.

Block Storage Can I attach a volume to any instance?

Yes. Volumes attach to instances in the same location and can be detached and reattached elsewhere without losing data.

Block Storage Can I grow a volume without downtime?

Volumes can be expanded while attached; the filesystem is then extended inside the instance. Shrinking is not supported.

Object Storage Is the API S3-compatible?

Yes. Existing S3 tooling, SDKs and backup targets work against Antyxsoft object storage with a change of endpoint and credentials.

Object Storage How is object storage priced?

It is quoted against capacity and usage pattern rather than listed, because request profiles differ widely. Add it to an estimate and it appears as a quoted line.

VPC What does a VPC give me?

An isolated private network for your resources, with your own address ranges, so instances communicate privately and are not exposed to the public internet unless you choose.

VPC Is traffic inside a VPC charged?

No. Private traffic between resources in the same VPC is not metered.

Cloud Firewalls How are firewall rules applied?

Rules are defined centrally and applied to instances or groups of instances, so a policy change takes effect everywhere it is attached without touching the guest OS.

Cloud Firewalls Does the firewall replace host-level security?

It complements it. The cloud firewall filters traffic before it reaches the instance; hardening inside the guest remains good practice.

Load Balancers Which balancing methods are supported?

Traffic can be distributed across instances in one or more locations, with health checks removing unhealthy targets automatically.

Load Balancers Can a load balancer terminate TLS?

Yes. Certificates can be managed on the balancer so backend instances serve plain HTTP inside the private network.

Veeam Backup What is protected by the managed backup service?

Instances, applications and file data can be backed up, replicated and recovered on schedules you define, with retention set per policy.

Veeam Backup Are restores tested?

Backups are monitored and restores can be verified. Recovery objectives and responsibilities are set out in the service description.

Control Panel What can I do from the control panel?

Deploy and manage every resource, monitor usage, manage users and subscriptions, open support tickets, and — for partners — manage customer accounts and their subscriptions.

Control Panel Is there an API?

Platform actions are documented in the knowledge base; contact us if you need programmatic access for a specific workflow.

Marketplace What is in the marketplace?

Pre-configured applications and images that deploy in one click onto a new instance — web stacks, developer tooling, databases and business applications.

Marketplace Do marketplace applications cost extra?

The application itself is free to deploy unless it carries a commercial licence, in which case the licence is billed per instance and shown before you deploy.

Account & Billing How do I open an account?

Sign up from the portal. Accounts can be created directly with Antyxsoft or through one of our partners, who then handle your billing.

Account & Billing What payment methods do you accept?

Invoiced payment on monthly or annual cycles. Confirm the accepted methods for your country with the sales team.

Account & Billing Can I get an NDA before discussing architecture?

Yes. We can sign an NDA before any architecture or migration discussion.

Looking for procedures rather than answers?

The knowledge base has the step-by-step material: deploying instances, managing subscriptions, billing and invoicing, and partner onboarding.
