Get started with CloudSigma in Mist

CloudSigma logo

Our recent Mist v4.4 release includes a brand new integration with CloudSigma. The goal is to help CloudSigma users manage their multicloud and hybrid setups from a single pane of glass. Even if you use only CloudSigma, you can still get value. You can connect multiple accounts across regions to Mist and manage them centrally.

Specifically for CloudSigma, with Mist you can:

  • Get a list of your VMs. Listings include all metadata information, e.g. public & private IPs, runtime information, attached drives etc.
  • Start, stop, reboot and delete VMs.
  • Create new VMs.
  • List, create and destroy volumes.
  • Attach volumes to VMs and detach them.

You can also leverage features that are common to all our supported clouds, e.g. tags, ownership metadata, expiration dates, cost quotas, role-based access controls, shell, scripts, orchestration, monitoring, rules, audit logs etc.
