Guides & Tutorials

Step-by-step walkthroughs for every VxCloud workflow — Frontend deploys, FastAPI, custom Docker Compose, MetalDB Postgres, CI/CD, Vault, audit streaming. Every guide shows the same flow three ways: the dashboard wizard, the vxcli commands, and an AI-driven prompt.

⚡Frontend deployments

Deploy a Next.js application from GitHub

Clone a Next.js repo, build with Node.js 20, and serve in production mode behind Nginx. Covers Git-token auth via Vault and live deployment progress streaming.

🐳Containers

Deploy any Docker Compose stack with the Custom Compose Stack wizard

Use the Custom Compose Stack wizard to deploy any compose file — from one of the 20 built-in templates (Postgres, Redis, Kafka, ELK, n8n, Vault, Ollama…) or your own YAML.

🚀CI/CD

Build a CI/CD pipeline with blue-green deployment

🔑Security & identity

Store and rotate cloud credentials with Vault

Add Alibaba / AWS / Azure / Google Cloud / Linode credentials and Git tokens to your workspace Vault. The platform resolves them at deploy time so no secrets ever land in deploy logs or container env.

Stream audit events to Splunk, Datadog, or your ELK stack

Subscribe to the WebSocket audit stream, deduplicate via the hash chain, and forward to your SIEM. Includes a sample worker in plain Node.js.

✉️SalesShift

Send your first tracked email with SalesShift

Connect your own mailbox, confirm the tenant node email worker is healthy, send one tracked email, and read the engagement back. Covers the suppression gate and why a pool address is not a real address.

Set up a sending pool and protect deliverability

Put several mailboxes behind one rotation, set caps and a warmup ramp, verify SPF/DKIM/DMARC, and run an inbox-placement test against a seed list you control. Rotation ships OFF for a reason.

Take a deal from lead to signed contract to paid invoice

The full quote-to-cash path: reveal and convert a prospect, open a deal, price it from the product catalogue, send a quote that freezes into an e-signable contract, then invoice it and take payment through Stripe or record it manually.
