Vantage documentation

Vantage is a self-hosted, multi-tenant infrastructure control plane. It manages SSH keys, runs scripted workflows, watches services, stores secrets, opens browser consoles and applies OS updates across a fleet of servers.

A central server drives a lightweight agent installed on each managed machine. The agent connects outbound only, so managed servers need no inbound firewall holes.

The two products

Vantage is the control plane — the thing you sign in to in order to manage servers. It runs either on your own infrastructure or as a cloud instance we run for you.

Vantage HQ is the portal at vantage-hq.hostxtra.co.uk where you manage the account behind those instances: who is on your team, which instances exist, what licence each one holds and how it is billed. HQ never manages your servers, and a Vantage instance never depends on HQ being reachable in order to run.
