Management

Applications launched from Delta Marketplace run on standard Cloud VPS servers. After provisioning, the server behaves like any other Cloud VPS — you can resize it, take snapshots, attach block storage, change networking, and so on — but there are a few marketplace-specific things worth knowing.

Accessing a Deployed Application

Once the server is active, open its page in the client area. The Cloud VPS service page shows:

  • The server's public IP address
  • The default root / administrator credentials generated during provisioning
  • Console access to the server (useful if SSH is not yet configured)
  • Resize, snapshot, and other management tabs — identical to a non-marketplace Cloud VPS

How you reach the application itself depends on the image:

  • Operating-system images (AlmaLinux, Ubuntu, Debian, etc.) — connect via SSH and configure the software you need
  • Web-application images (WordPress, Magento, Nextcloud, etc.) — open the server's public IP in a browser. The first request typically opens the application's setup wizard or welcome page
  • Control-panel images (cPanel, Virtualmin, Webmin) — open the server's public IP on the control panel's port (often :2083, :10000, or similar — check the application's own documentation)
  • Network appliances (MikroTik RouterOS, pfSense Plus) — access the web UI or connect via the appliance's native tools

What to Do Right After Provisioning

Because every marketplace image boots with default credentials, a few steps are strongly recommended before you put the server into real use:

  1. Change the default password for every account with access to the system (root, database admin, application admin)
  2. Configure SSH key authentication and disable password authentication once keys work
  3. Review the firewall and open ports — marketplace images usually open only what the application needs, but verify this matches your expectations
  4. Apply the latest operating-system updates (for example, dnf update on AlmaLinux/CentOS or apt update && apt upgrade on Debian/Ubuntu)

Updates and Maintenance

Marketplace images are maintained by Delta, but maintenance applies to the image catalog — newer images published for new customers. Once your server is provisioned, day-to-day patching is your responsibility, the same as with any other Cloud VPS server.

  • Operating-system updates — managed with the distribution's standard package manager
  • Application updates — follow the upstream project's documentation (WordPress core updates, Magento upgrades, Nextcloud updates, and so on)
  • Image-level updates — we publish new marketplace image versions when a major application or OS version is released. Existing servers do not migrate automatically; if you want the newer version, deploy a new server from the updated image and migrate your data

Licensed Images

Most marketplace images are free. The following require a separate license to use all features:

  • Windows Server — the licensing fee is billed as part of the Cloud VPS subscription
  • MikroTik RouterOS — the image starts in trial mode until a paid license key is applied
  • pfSense Plus — the image starts with the community-edition feature set; commercial features require a license

For all licensed images, contact Delta support if you need help activating or purchasing a license.

Application-Specific Documentation

Delta maintains the image; the application itself is maintained by its upstream project. For configuration, tuning, and troubleshooting beyond the defaults, follow the project's own documentation — for example the WordPress, Magento, Nginx, MySQL, or Redis documentation for the respective images.

Support

If you have an issue specific to Delta's image preparation, provisioning, billing, or the underlying Cloud VPS server, create a ticket from the "New Ticket" tab on the Cloud VPS service page in the client area, or directly at my.delta.bg/ticket/create.
