Cloud Providers

Information on how to manage and use cloud keys within the project.

Serversinc lets you provision new servers directly from your cloud provider, making it easy to scale infrastructure across multiple regions and providers when needed.

How it works

By connecting your cloud provider (such as Hetzner or DigitalOcean) using API tokens, ServerSinc can securely create and manage virtual machines on your behalf. This enables you to:

  • Spin up new servers with one click
  • Automatically install Docker, Traefik, and monitoring agents
  • Install Tugboat for Docker management
  • Manage server lifecycle (start, stop, reboot)

Supported Cloud Providers

ServerSinc currently supports the following cloud providers:

  • Hetzner Cloud: A cost-effective cloud provider with data centers in Europe.
  • DigitalOcean: A popular cloud provider known for its simplicity and developer-friendly features.

Connecting a Cloud Provider

To connect a cloud provider, follow these steps:

  1. Create an API Token: Log in to your cloud provider's dashboard and create a new API token with the necessary permissions.
  2. Add the Token to ServerSinc: In the ServerSinc dashboard, click on "Manage Cloud Providers" and select "Add New Provider". Enter the API token and any required details.
  3. Start Provisioning: Once connected, you can start provisioning new servers directly from the ServerSinc dashboard.
