Continuwuity Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Deploy Continuwuity hosting and run your own Matrix homeserver on your own domain. xCloud runs the pinned Continuwuity v26.7.2 image, creates the @admin account with a generated password, turns on token-gated sign-ups, mounts a persistent volume and publishes the server over HTTPS in minutes — the database is embedded, so there is no separate database or cache to manage.

What is Continuwuity?

Continuwuity is a Matrix homeserver written in Rust. Matrix is an open, federated network for decentralised communication, so users on one homeserver can chat with users on any other.

It is the official community continuation of the conduwuit homeserver, which upstream says has been archived and is no longer maintained. The project aims to provide a stable, well-maintained alternative that runs on modest hardware.

From Sign-Up to a Live Matrix Server In Just 3 Easy Steps

A Matrix homeserver normally means a container, a domain, a certificate, discovery files, a first administrator and a registration policy before the first message. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick Continuwuity from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server — there are no extra fields to fill in.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We bring up the official Continuwuity image, pinned by immutable digest, with the embedded database on the continuwuity_data volume, a small read-only readiness container that probes the homeserver, a generated @admin password and registration token, and HTTPS on your domain.
Step 03
Sign In From A Matrix Client
Save the admin password and registration token from the protected installation credentials. In a Matrix client such as Element, set the homeserver to your HTTPS domain and sign in as @admin:your-domain, then change the password and share the registration token with the people you want to invite.

Everything Continuwuity Does, On Your Own Server

Continuwuity runs in full here: a Matrix homeserver on your own domain that works with any Matrix client.

A Matrix Homeserver In Rust
Continuwuity is a Matrix homeserver written in Rust that aims to stay lightweight and efficient on modest hardware.
Federation Over HTTPS
Matrix lets users on any homeserver chat with users on other homeservers. Here federation shares your domain's HTTPS port 443, with discovery served from the same domain.
Token-Gated Sign-Ups
Open registration is off. Only people holding your registration token can create an account; without it registration is refused.
Generated Admin Account
The @admin account is created on first start with a generated password and is a server administrator.
Embedded Database
No separate database or cache runs alongside it; accounts, rooms, messages, media and the server signing key live on the continuwuity_data volume.
Any Matrix Client
There is no built-in web app. Use Element or another Matrix client with your domain as the homeserver.

Continuwuity vs Alternatives

conduwuit: The homeserver Continuwuity continues. Upstream states the original project has been archived and is no longer maintained; Continuwuity can migrate conduwuit data.
Matrix Synapse: Another Matrix homeserver, also available on xCloud. Upstream notes a Synapse database cannot be migrated to Continuwuity.
Tuwunel: Another Rust Matrix homeserver in the conduwuit lineage, also available as a OneClick app on xCloud.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

Brian Geovanny

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

Kevin Pineda

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud

Ed Ellingham

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.

Dumitru Butucel

xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.

Waqar Ahmed

Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍

Rahul Singh

So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.

Massimo Villa

Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.

Gerson El

I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.

Tony Lewis

I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.

Jared McDowell

I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently

Kevin Heinrichs

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.

Dan Spinoza

Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Rahil Maknojia

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

How do I sign in?

Open a Matrix client such as Element, set the homeserver to your HTTPS domain and sign in as @admin:your-domain with the generated password from the installation credentials.

How do other people get accounts?

Give them the registration token. Without it, registration is refused; open registration is off.

Does Continuwuity federate with other Matrix servers?

Yes, over your domain's HTTPS port 443, with discovery served from the site domain. It needs working public DNS.

What runs alongside Continuwuity?

Only a small read-only readiness container that probes the homeserver. The database is embedded, so there is no separate database or cache.

Can I change the domain later?

No. The Matrix server name is your domain and is fixed on first start; changing it later breaks the install.

Where is the admin password, and what should I do with it?

It is shown in the protected installation credentials and is also printed once in the first-boot container log. Change it from your Matrix client after signing in, and treat early logs as sensitive.

How do I rotate the registration token?

Edit the registration token in the app's environment and redeploy.

Edit environment variables and redeploy

What should I back up?

The continuwuity_data volume, which holds the database, signing key, media and account state.

Backups in xCloud

What survives a restart?

Accounts, rooms, messages and the server signing key — in QA a message was still readable and the admin could still sign in after a restart, because the data lives on a persistent named volume.

Does xCloud automatically back up or update Continuwuity?

No. The template pins Continuwuity v26.7.2 by immutable digest; new installations use the pinned release, existing sites are not automatically upgraded. Back up first, read the upstream release notes, then bump the readable tag and digest together on your own schedule. Server-level backups and snapshots are available on every Cloud VPS.

What are the server requirements, and why does this page sell 6 GB?

The template's baseline asks for 1 CPU core, 512 MB of RAM and 4 GB of disk; measured idle use in QA was about 42 MiB. This page sells the 6 GB tier as the entry rung, with real headroom above that baseline.

Is xCloud officially partnered with Continuwuity?

No. No official partnership or endorsement between xCloud and the Continuwuity project has been verified. This is a deployment and server-management option for the open-source Continuwuity project.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
