LIGHTWEIGHT CONTAINERSVM FEEL
Your own little machine,
handed to you by your admin.
hqnode gives each user a system container that boots like a VM — SSH in, install packages, run services — with fair CPU, memory, disk and traffic limits.
$ ssh you@panel.corenet.io
→ lands in your container
root@web-you-01:~# systemctl start nginx
root@web-you-01:~# apt install postgresql
→ it is a container, but it behaves like a small VM
How you get a container
A
An admin assigns one to you
- Create an account — pick a username your admin can find.
- Your admin types your username and binds a container to it, with limits and an expiry date.
- It appears under My containers — SSH in and go.
B
Or redeem an invite link
- Your admin sends a link like /i/8FKQ-2MZP.
- Open it, sign in (or sign up), pick an image and a name.
- The container is created on the admin’s machine within the limits baked into the invite.
Feels like a VM
systemd boots inside — services, cron, apt install all work.
One SSH door
Log in with your username; you land in your own container.
Your own domain
HTTPS routed by SNI straight to your container — bring your certs.
Fair limits
CPU, memory, disk and monthly traffic are capped per container.
