Your cloud lab toolkit

Everything you need to learn by doing.

ZunoX Cloud turns practical cloud infrastructure into a focused learning environment. Spin up small compute, automate the boring parts, and build systems you can actually understand.

Fast to deploy Scriptable by design Built for safe experiments
01 / Compute

Free-tier compute VM instances

Small virtual machines give you a real place to run containerized workloads, development environments, and lightweight AI models such as Ollama without needing a full desktop setup.

Try this in a SchoolLabRun a small Ollama model beside a web interface, monitor its resource usage, and learn where compute becomes the constraint.
02 / Store

S3-compatible object storage

Keep configuration backups, static educational assets, datasets, and video files outside the server that runs them. Object storage scales independently and works with familiar S3 tooling.

$ s3 sync ./assets lab-assets

> backup complete
Good fit forBacking up Compose files and databases, publishing a static project site, or storing source media for a video-on-demand experiment.
03 / Automate

Infrastructure as code

Use Terraform or OpenTofu to describe your lab in files, provision it from scratch, and tear it down when the lesson is over. Repeatable infrastructure makes experimentation less fragile.

Build the habitCommit your infrastructure files alongside your application code, then give every student or project its own reproducible environment.
04 / Package

Lightweight containerization

Docker and Docker Compose isolate tools and services without the overhead of a full operating-system image for every experiment. Compose files make a stack easy to share and reset.

compose stackHEALTHY
web :8080   db :5432
api :3000   cache :6379
Across the sciencesPackage a math notebook, physics simulator, or chemistry visualization with its dependencies so classmates can run the same environment.
05 / Connect

Secure remote access & VPNs

Overlay networks such as WireGuard or Tailscale let your local machine, home server, and cloud VM communicate privately without exposing every service to the public internet.

home <-- encrypted --> cloud
school <-- encrypted --> cloud
Learn network boundariesPractice private DNS, access control, and service routing while keeping unfinished dashboards and admin panels off the public web.
06 / Resilience

Managed database replication

Explore how data stays available by synchronizing a cloud MySQL instance with a home backup server on a schedule that fits your project.

Make failure teachableSeed a sample database, simulate a failure, restore from the backup, and document what a dependable recovery process looks like.
07 / Operate

Web-based terminal access

Wetty or Apache Guacamole can put a controlled terminal in the browser, making it possible to manage a lab from a school device without installing a local client.

Remove the device barrierGive a group a shared operational entry point while keeping credentials, permissions, and the underlying server under control.
