What is HarborCloud Performance Node?
HarborCloud Performance Node is HarborCloud's managed compute service for teams that need predictable throughput without babysitting infrastructure. Provisioning takes under a minute, billing is per use with no minimums, and the same API works in every region. The service drops into existing CI pipelines and Terraform modules without rewrites. HarborCloud operates it as a fully managed service: patching, capacity, and failover are handled upstream, while access controls and spend alerts stay in your hands.
Key features
- Automatic replication across availability zones
- Drop-in Terraform provider and CloudFormation templates
- Live migration for planned maintenance, no downtime window
- Transparent egress rates published per region
- Granular metrics exported to your own monitoring stack
Typical use cases
- Production web applications with spiky traffic patterns
- Data pipelines that need predictable throughput at a fixed cost
- SaaS platforms scaling from first customer to full estate
- Development teams standardizing on one infrastructure API
Why HarborCloud?
HarborCloud publishes list prices for every region and never gates core capabilities behind enterprise-only tiers. Capacity is pre-provisioned, so the performance you benchmark in a sandbox is the performance you get in production. And because egress rates are flat, the bill at the end of the month matches the estimate you made at the start.
Getting started
Create an account, pick a region, and the default configuration is live in under a minute. The quickstart walks through your first deployment in about ten minutes, and the managed Terraform module turns the same setup into code you can review.
