Managed Applications

Information

Managed Applications is a service where applications are deployed, maintained, and supported by the provider, including infrastructure, updates, security, and monitoring, while the client gains access to the application. This allows clients to use applications without renting a server or performing administrative tasks themselves.

Key Features

The Managed Applications service provides:

  • Private fully managed application with instant access.
  • Stable performance — infrastructure and resources are maintained by HOSTKEY.
  • No setup required — no need to rent a server or know Linux: operation starts immediately after ordering.
  • Resource monitoring — current consumption (traffic, RAM, and CPU usage) is displayed in the personal account under the "My Applications" tab.

At the time of documentation preparation, the following applications are available in the catalog:

  • n8n CE — an extensible workflow automation tool with a fair-code model.
  • RocketChat 6 CE — a platform for corporate communication, including messaging, voice, and video calls.
  • Jitsi — an application for calls, video conferencing, and messaging via web interface or mobile app.
  • TeamSpeak — a popular VoIP communication system for online gaming.
  • Nextcloud — a platform for secure file storage, content collaboration, and data hosting.

Next to each application name in the catalog is a book icon — this is a link to HOSTKEY documentation for working with the respective product (applications are also available in the marketplace).

How to Order

The service is ordered through the personal account in the Managed Apps section (accessible via the top menu of the site through Services > Managed Apps).

Ordering Steps:

  1. On the Apps available tab, select the desired application from the catalog. Use the search bar if needed.
  2. Click the application card (or the Order App button) — the Your order panel will open, showing the application name, the Basic plan composition (included resources and additional-resource rates), and the total cost (field "TOTAL", €/month).
  3. Click the Order button. Payment for the service is automatically deducted from the personal account balance.

  1. The application is deployed automatically — the process takes approximately 10–15 minutes.
  2. After deployment is complete, the application will appear on the My managed apps tab, where an access link will be provided (the Link: Open application field) — it is formed from the service name and a unique random identifier.
  3. Login credentials (username and password) can be viewed via the Show credentials button in the application's row on the My managed apps tab (it opens the Credentials for the application panel) and are also sent to the email associated with the account.

Monitoring and Management

On the "My managed apps" tab, the following information is displayed for each deployed application:

  • application link (the Link: Open application field);
  • current traffic — incoming and outgoing;
  • RAM usage (%);
  • CPU usage (%);
  • Show credentials button — opens a panel with the application's login and password;
  • Cancel service button.

Applications that are still being deployed are shown with the Installation not completed status.

Clicking the Show credentials button opens the Credentials for the application panel, which displays the admin login and admin password for the selected application. Click Close to dismiss the panel.

Service Cancellation

Clicking the Cancel service button opens the Cancel order confirmation panel: "Your app and all its data will be permanently deleted. Are you sure you want to cancel the service?" Important: after confirmation, the application and all its data will be deleted and cannot be recovered. To complete the cancellation, click the Cancel service button in the confirmation panel.

Pricing

Pricing for the Managed Applications service is calculated using the formula:

Final Price = Basic plan (fixed monthly rate) + pay-as-you-go charges for additional resources

This pricing model applies to all applications in the Managed Applications service, meaning it is universal.

The Basic plan has a fixed price per month and includes:

  • 2 CPU;
  • 4 GB RAM;
  • 40 GB HDD;
  • 1 TB bandwidth (outgoing traffic).

These resources are sufficient for the initial operation of all selected applications.

The Basic plan limits can be automatically increased. When the base limits are exceeded, additional resources are billed separately and calculated automatically at the following rates (example for n8n CE):

  • €6 per additional 2 CPU/month;
  • €2.2 per additional 1 GB RAM/month;
  • €0.4 per additional 1 GB HDD/month;
  • €0.0100 per additional 1 GB transferred.

The total monthly cost is shown in the TOTAL field of the Your order panel (e.g., €20/month for the n8n CE Basic plan). Current pricing can always be viewed when ordering the service in the personal account.

Billing

At the time of service order, funds will be deducted from your account balance for one month of actual usage in accordance with the terms of the selected tariff plan. Subsequent monthly payments will also be charged to your account balance.

Attention

If your account balance lacks sufficient funds to pay for the service at the time of renewal, an invoice to replenish your balance will be sent to the email address specified during account registration. Service provision will be suspended. If the invoice remains unpaid for 3 calendar days, the service will be deleted, and the ability to order new services will be blocked.

Billing documents are generated on the 2nd of the month following the billing period at 05:00 UTC. You can view billing documents in the Billing section of Invapi. The amount in billing documents covers the calendar month and includes the cost of service usage.
