This allows you to quickly launch projects that require a specific software environment, with minimal time spent on initial configuration.

How to Install BrainyCP

Installation on a VPS (steps for Debian/Ubuntu)

This is a standard procedure for BrainyCP install on a clean Debian or Ubuntu operating system.

Prepare the server. Deploy a new BrainyCP VPS with Debian 11/12 or Ubuntu 20.04/22.04 pre-installed. Be sure to use a clean image without any software installed.
Get the installation script. Connect to the server via SSH and run the command to download the installer: bash wget https://cdn.BrainyCP.com/install.sh
Run the script. Make the script executable and run it as root: bash chmod +x install.sh ./install.sh
Follow the instructions. The BrainyCP install script will check the system and start the installation process. You will need to agree to the license agreement and wait for the process to finish.
Finish the installation. After the server reboots, open the IP address of your BrainyCP VPS in your browser. To log in to the panel, use the login and password of the root user of your server.

Installation on a Dedicated Server

Installation on a dedicated server (BrainyCP install on dedicated server) includes the same steps, but requires additional preliminary preparation.

Install a clean OS. The first step is to install a clean operating system (Debian or Ubuntu recommended versions) via IPMI, iDRAC or other management tools of your data center.
Configure the network. Make sure that the server has a static white IP address and DNS records are configured correctly. This is critical for the BrainyCP panel to work.
Run the installation. After configuring the OS, repeat steps 2-4 from the VPS instructions: download the script, make it executable and run it. The BrainyCP install process will be identical.
Log in to the panel. After the installation is complete and reboot, open the IP address of your dedicated server in the browser. Use root credentials to log in.

You can do the installation yourself or choose HOSTKEY's pre-installed BrainyCP VPS and skip manual setup.

BrainyCP VPS Hosting Plans

BrainyCP offers a flexible usage model: after registration, you have access to a free 30-day trial period for full testing of all the capabilities of BrainyCP VPS. After its expiration, the server switches to a paid license model, where the cost depends on the selected resource configuration (CPU, RAM, SSD).

Technical Specifications for BrainyCP VPS

Supported Operating Systems - Debian, Ubuntu

Minimum Requirements - 2 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 20 GB SSD

The minimum configuration for comfortable operation of the BrainyCP control panel on a BrainyCP VPS virtual server is 2 virtual cores (vCPU), 2 GB of RAM and 20 GB of disk space on a fast SSD drive. This configuration is sufficient for deploying the panel and running a small web project or test environment.

Recommended Configurations - 4-8 vCPU, 8-16 GB RAM, 100+ GB SSD

For high-load production projects, it is recommended to choose more powerful configurations for BrainyCP VPS: from 4 to 8 virtual cores (vCPU), 8–16 GB of RAM and an SSD disk with a capacity of 100 GB.

BrainyCP on Ubuntu VPS

Why Choose Ubuntu for BrainyCP?

Choosing the BrainyCP ubuntu operating system for deploying the BrainyCP platform is one of the most popular and rational decisions. Here are the key reasons why the BrainyCP VPS and Ubuntu bundle is so effective:

Stability and long-term support (LTS). The BrainyCP ubuntu LTS distributions are known for their reliability and long update cycle, which is critical for the smooth operation of the hosting panel and client projects. This ensures predictability of the environment and reduces the risk of software conflicts.
Wide compatibility and community. Ubuntu has a huge community of users and developers, and supports a wide variety of software, libraries, and frameworks. This means that any application you plan to run on your BrainyCP VPS is guaranteed to be compatible and easy to configure.
Ease of administration. The BrainyCP Ubuntu OS is famous for its convenience and extensive documentation. Combined with the powerful tools of the BrainyCP control panel, the process of server management becomes as simple and efficient as possible, even for administrators with less experience.

Quick Installation on Ubuntu VPS

The process of installing BrainyCP on a server with Ubuntu is maximally simplified and automated. The BrainyCP platform officially supports the latest LTS versions of Ubuntu, which guarantees the absence of compatibility issues. To get started, simply deploy a new BrainyCP VPS by selecting the pre-installed BrainyCP ubuntu image when ordering - this is the best option that saves time. If you already have a server with clean Ubuntu, the installation comes down to executing several commands in the terminal to launch a universal installation script that will automatically perform all the necessary settings.
