Virtual machines
What are virtual machines & how can I use them on CUDO Compute?
Concept
A Virtual Machine (VM) is a compute resource that uses a virtualised server environment. You can provision virtual machines on the CUDO Compute platform for a wide range of workloads. See our range of tutorials for an idea of what you can do.
Features
- Monitoring interface
- Deployment from private images
- Resizing
- Project based permissions
- Virtual Network Computing (VNC)
Operating systems
Virtual machines boot disks can be loaded with either a private image or a public image. For more information about private images, see private image documentation.
Below is an updated list of all available public images on the platform:
