Create an instance, pick Marketplace App at the template step, and choose it from the list. You pay for the instance.
What Drupal gives you
Drupal is an open-source content management framework built for sites whose content has structure: many content types, taxonomies, editorial states and granular permissions. Where a simpler CMS models everything as a page, Drupal models fields and relationships, which is why it shows up behind government, university and large corporate sites.
The Marketplace image arrives with the web server, PHP and database layer configured, so the first task is the site installation profile rather than the stack underneath it.
Key features
- Structured content. Custom content types, fields and taxonomies, with views that query them without writing SQL.
- Editorial workflow. Draft, review and published states with per-role permissions and revision history.
- Multilingual. Translation of content, interface and configuration is part of core, not a bolt-on.
- Access control. Fine-grained roles and permissions down to individual fields.
- API-first. JSON:API and REST in core for headless or hybrid front ends.
What is in the image

|---|---|
| Web stack | Web server, PHP-FPM and database, preconfigured |

Good fit for

Getting started
Four steps from sign-in to a running application. The full walkthrough, with screenshots, is in the knowledge base.
-
01
Log in to the Cloud Portal
Sign in at portal.antyxsoft.io and start creating an instance, choosing the region closest to your users.
-
02
At Select Template, open Marketplace App
In the instance creation flow, switch from operating-system images to the Marketplace App tab.
-
03
Pick the template and deploy
Select the ready-to-go template, confirm the plan and region, then review and deploy. The instance boots with the application installed.
-
04
Finish the application setup
Open the instance address, run the installation profile, then point your domain at the instance and issue a TLS certificate.
Before it carries real traffic
- Attach a Cloud Firewall that opens only the ports this application needs, with management access limited to your own addresses.
- Schedule backups covering both the database and the application's data directory.
- Add a Block Storage volume for data that will outgrow the instance disk.
- Put it inside a VPC when it needs private access to other services.

A CMS that grows with the content model
Deploy the Drupal image in the region you need and start with the content architecture, not the server build.
