This documentation describes how users access and manage cloud resources using AGB Cloud.
The guide introduces user authentication, Project concepts, and Project management workflows before progressing to cloud resource usage. It is intended for end users and Project administrators.
AGB Cloud services are accessed through a web-based portal that provides secure authentication, Project selection, and cloud resource management.
The portal is available at: https://agbc.cloud/
This documentation covers the following categories of cloud resources available on AGB Cloud. Each section provides step-by-step guides to help you get started.
The Compute section covers all resources needed to deploy and manage virtual machine instances and containerized workloads.
Launch an Instance - Launching an instance allows you to deploy compute resources in your selected Service Cloud Zone with customized configurations such as CPU, memory, storage, operating system, and network. Before creating an instance, ensure you have an SSH Key Pair, a Guest Network or VPC, and optionally Instance Group and User Data prepared.
Instance Snapshots - Instance Snapshots provide point-in-time backups of running or stopped instances. A snapshot preserves the state of the virtual machine's root disk and all attached data disks, allowing environments to be restored or replicated. Use cases include: Backup, Disaster Recovery, System Rollback, and Environment Cloning.
SSH Key Pairs - An SSH Key Pair provides secure, password-less access to Linux-based instances. It consists of a public key stored on the instance and a private key kept by the user. The private key (.pem) file is downloaded once at creation and must be stored securely.
Kubernetes - The Kubernetes tab allows users to deploy and manage containerized workloads through the integrated Kubernetes Service (CKS). It provides a managed environment for creating and scaling Kubernetes clusters using compute resources, networking, and SSH key integration.
Instance Group - An Instance Group is used to logically organize your instances for better management, monitoring, and resource grouping. It helps you categorize instances based on application tiers such as frontend, backend, or database servers.
User Data - User Data allows you to automate instance initialization by running scripts during the first boot of an instance. It is commonly used to install software, configure services, or prepare the environment automatically.
The Network section covers tools for managing virtual networks, IP addressing, and traffic control.
Guest Network - A Guest Network is the internal network used by your virtual machines inside a VPC. Every VM you deploy must attach to a Guest Network. This network defines important settings such as CIDR, gateway, DNS, and network offerings.
Public IP - A Public IP address allows your instance or service to be accessible from the internet. Once allocated, a Public IP can be configured with Port Forwarding Rules and Firewall Rules to control traffic.
VPC - Virtual Private Cloud provides isolated network environments for your cloud resources.
Network ACLs - Network Access Control Lists allow you to define inbound and outbound traffic rules at the network level.
The Storage section covers block storage management, including volumes and snapshot capabilities.
Volume - A Volume is a block storage resource that can be attached to an instance to provide additional disk space. Volumes can be created independently and attached to or detached from instances as needed. Available storage tiers range from SSD-20 (20 GB) to SSD-2T (2000 GB).
Volume Snapshots - A Volume Snapshot captures the current state of a volume at a specific point in time. Snapshots allow you to back up critical data, replicate environments, and restore volumes to a previous state in case of data loss or corruption.
Volume Snapshot Policy - A Volume Snapshot Policy automates snapshot creation on a defined recurring schedule. A policy automatically captures the state of a selected volume at set intervals hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly ensuring consistent backups without manual intervention.
Important: Several resources on AGB Cloud are chargeable, including Instances, Kubernetes clusters, Public IPs, Guest Networks with IP Plans, and Snapshots. Charges apply from the moment a resource is created and continue until it is permanently deleted. To avoid unnecessary charges, ensure that unused resources are deleted promptly.
