Resize, convert and optimize images on demand through a compact, signed HTTP API — without originals ever leaving your own storage. xCloud configures the pinned imgproxy 4.0.14 image and the HTTPS reverse proxy in minutes, with a generated HMAC signing key and salt waiting for the client that builds your image URLs.
Self-hosting a signed image-processing API normally means a container, a signing setup, source restrictions, a domain and a certificate before a single image is resized. This is the same result without assembling any of it.
Step 01
Create your xCloud account and pick imgproxy from the OneClick catalog. Enter a site title, domain and your trusted allowed source URL prefixes.
Step 02
One click. We bring up the vendor-maintained imgproxy 4.0.14 image pinned by immutable digest, generate a 32-byte HMAC signing key and salt, and publish the API over HTTPS on your domain.
Step 03
Store the generated key and salt in the client that builds imgproxy URLs. Generate an HMAC-SHA256 signature for a processing path, request the signed HTTPS URL, and confirm the resized image comes back.
imgproxy runs in full here — signed, on-demand image resizing and optimization, on infrastructure you control.
Every resize, convert or optimize request must carry a valid HMAC-SHA256 signature, or imgproxy rejects it outright.
Loopback, link-local and private source addresses are denied by default, on top of your own allowed source URL prefixes.
Source resolution, file size, output dimensions, workers and queue depth are all capped, so one request can't exhaust the server.
Convert and resize remote images on demand and serve the optimized result straight from the API.
No source images or results are stored server-side — your own storage and CDN remain the source of truth.
The signing key and salt stay stable across an xCloud Restart, so already-signed URLs keep working.

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 GeovannyI'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 PinedaI'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
Leo KooHow Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud
Ed EllinghamxCloud 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 ButucelxCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.
Waqar AhmedTrust 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 SinghSo 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 VillaCame from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.
Gerson ElI'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 LewisI came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.
Jared McDowellI 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
David McCanHow Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently
Kevin HeinrichsI had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.
Dan SpinozaDear 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 MaknojiaCame from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.
Karl FanegaHow Advanced Web Strategies Saved Over $2,000 & Recovered 56 Hours per Month Managing 70+ Client Websites
Gary MoodyxCloud 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.
Jorge de los Reyes MartínezI use Server Avatar and xCloud and I'll sooner use xCloud than Server Avatar personally.

John ApertureI went from Cloudways to xCloud. No intention on switching in the foreseeable future.

imgproxy is a free, open-source HTTP service for fast, signed, on-demand image resizing, conversion and optimization. This template deploys version 4.0.14 of the Apache-2.0 community core.
The community core is free and open source under the Apache License 2.0. What you pay xCloud for is the dedicated server it runs on and the management around it, not the application itself. imgproxy Pro and commercial/cloud features are outside this template.
Yes — that is exactly what this template deploys. It brings up the vendor-maintained imgproxy 4.0.14 image pinned by immutable digest and publishes it over HTTPS on your domain in minutes instead of assembled by hand.
Prepend the decoded salt to your imgproxy processing path, calculate an HMAC-SHA256 digest with the decoded key, and URL-safe Base64-encode the digest. imgproxy's own signing guide has examples in common languages. Unsigned or incorrectly signed requests are rejected.
The generated URL-signing key and salt, your allowed source URL prefixes, the domain and the HTTPS route. Only the imgproxy HTTP API is published through xCloud-managed ingress.
Only URLs matching the comma-separated allowed source URL prefixes you set at install, defaulting to https://. Loopback, link-local and private source addresses are always denied in this template, regardless of your prefix list.
The generated signing key and salt, together with every API client's configuration. There is no application volume — imgproxy stores no source images or results — so credentials and client config are the only things to preserve.
Yes. Update IMGPROXY_KEY and IMGPROXY_SALT together in the Environment editor and restart the application. Update every signing client at the same time — old signed URLs stop working after rotation.
No. The template pins imgproxy v4.0.14 by immutable digest; a catalog re-sync affects new installations only. Review release notes and verify a valid signed resize, incorrect-signature rejection and public HTTPS before changing the pinned image.
The template manifest asks for 1 GB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 2 GB of disk as a floor. This page sells the 6 GB tier, comfortable headroom for concurrent or high-resolution processing beyond that floor.
Yes. This template bounds source images to 50 megapixels and 50 MiB, result dimensions to 4096 pixels, animation processing to one frame, workers to two, and the waiting queue to 20 requests — deliberate limits for predictable self-hosted operation.
No. No official partnership or endorsement between xCloud and the imgproxy project has been verified. This is a deployment and server-management option for the open-source imgproxy project.
Yes. It is a dedicated Cloud VPS, not a locked appliance, so you can deploy other OneClick apps or your own sites beside it as long as the resources are there.
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.
Connect your first server in minutes. No credit card required, and no plan you have to grow into.
