Compute

Compute lets you run virtual machines (instances) on redu.cloud.

Use these endpoints to list, create, and manage instances, and to discover available flavors.

Concepts

Instance

An instance is a virtual machine created from an image and a flavor.

Common instance fields:

• status — high-level status (e.g. ACTIVE, SHUTOFF, BUILD)
• state — internal lifecycle state (e.g. active, stopped, provisioning)
• image_id — which image the instance was created from
• flavor_id — the compute size for CPU/RAM/disk
• metadata — additional configuration, such as SSH or public access

Endpoints

• List Instances
• Create Instance
• Flavors
• SSH
• Make Public

Authentication

Compute endpoints require an API key:

x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY

See Authentication for examples in cURL, Node.js, Python, and Go.
