Introduction
NavEngine is a cloud infrastructure platform that connects to your Scale Computing, NodeWeaver, or OpenNebula clusters and lets you create, manage, and monetize virtual machines - all from a single dashboard. It gives infrastructure providers a complete control plane: automated billing, multi-hypervisor management, customer self-service, and built-in support - all operating under your own brand.

Getting Started
NavEngine is available in two deployment modes.
Self-Hosted
You run NavEngine on your own infrastructure using a provided qcow2 disk image. The NavEngine team assists with deployment to ensure everything runs correctly from the start. Review the minimum VM requirements and follow the deployment guide for your hypervisor platform:
Managed Cloud Instance
NavEngine provisions a dedicated organisation for you within the shared cloud platform. Your data and configuration are fully isolated from other organisations on the same infrastructure - no hardware setup required on your end.
Contact the NavEngine Team
To begin with either deployment option, reach out to the NavEngine team. Let them know which deployment path you prefer and they will begin the setup process with you.
