// the mission

Why it's called Galaxy Cloud Solutions

The name isn't decoration. The goal — the real, lifelong one — is to put compute where nobody has put it before: in orbit, on the Moon, on Mars, wherever people go next.

We're at step one: a single ground station in North Dakota, earning the kind of reliability the rest of the plan depends on. It's deliberately small and deliberately well-run. Every VM you launch here is a little more fuel for the climb.

// what you get

A ground station you'd actually trust

The things that matter when you SSH in — and none of the enterprise overhead you'd never use.

Live in minutes

Your VM is built automatically the moment payment clears — usually online in three to five minutes, login details in your inbox.

Network isolation

Every VM sits behind its own firewall rules. Inter-VM traffic is blocked by default, so your neighbors stay your neighbors.

Dual-ISP failover

Two independent uplinks — BEK fiber and cable — with automatic failover. One link drops, your VM stays reachable.

Full root, your rules

Real root SSH on a real KVM guest. Install anything, kernel modules included. It's your box — we just keep it powered.

No overselling

Dedicated vCPU, RAM, and storage — the numbers on your plan are the numbers you get. No surprise throttling.

Talk to the operator

Support isn't a ticket queue reading a script. It's the person who racked the server and wrote the provisioning code.

Dedicated KVM virtualization with direct support from the person who runs the hardware.
// the ground station

One server, looked after properly

No reseller chain, no mystery infrastructure. Here's exactly what your VM runs on today.

01

Enterprise hardware

A Dell PowerEdge R630 with dual Intel Xeon processors and ECC memory — the same class of machine that fills real data centers.

02

Proxmox + KVM

Full hardware virtualization on Proxmox VE. Your VM gets genuinely dedicated resources, not a slice of a shared container.

03

Cloudflare in front

All traffic routes through Cloudflare for DDoS protection, SSL, and fast delivery from edge to origin.

Good to know

Valley City, North Dakota, USA. Enterprise Dell PowerEdge hardware, dual-ISP redundancy, and Cloudflare DDoS protection out front.

Ubuntu 24.04, Debian 13, Rocky Linux 9, and AlmaLinux 9 at the moment — all with full root SSH from the start.

Provisioning kicks off automatically once payment confirms. Most VMs are online and emailed to you within a few minutes.

Yes. Move up a tier any time and we'll resize your VM and adjust billing to match — no rebuild required.

Full refund within 3 days of your first payment if it's not for you. After that, all sales are final — details in the refund policy.

All major credit and debit cards through Stripe, plus PayPal. No setup fees on any plan.

Plans are unmanaged — you hold root and full control. If you get stuck getting started, the operator is happy to point you the right way.

Launch a VM. Fund the climb.

Deploy in minutes — no contracts, no setup fees, 3-day money back. And you'll be a small part of getting compute off this planet.
