01Problem
Hosting offers on the market are tied to monthly billing with manual provisioning — a customer waits hours for a server they need for a single day.

02Environment
An own datacenter in Georgia running enterprise-grade hardware: Cisco, Juniper, HP, Dell, Arista, with redundant power and cooling.
03Constraints
Billing had to be hourly with no prepayment; server creation in minutes; all of it on the group's own network.
04Architecture
KVM virtualization on RAID 10 SSD storage over Intel Xeon Gold. Each virtual server gets a dedicated IPv4 and a 1 Gbps port. The control panel is built in-house.
05Implementation
Provisioning is automated at API level: the customer picks a plan, tops up the balance and creates the server without operator involvement. Ubuntu, Debian, RockyLinux and AlmaLinux are supported, plus OpenVPN and WireGuard templates.
06Operations
The platform runs continuously with technical support; infrastructure monitoring and escalation follow the same processes we offer clients.
07What changed
Hourly billing plus self-service provisioning — a customer no longer pays for a month to run a one-day job.
