Introduction

The AceCloud CLI (ace) is a command-line tool for managing your AceCloud infrastructure. Create and manage instances, volumes, VPCs, load balancers, Kubernetes clusters, container deployments, and more — all from your terminal.

Features

• Full infrastructure management — instances, volumes, VPCs, routers, security groups, floating IPs, load balancers

• Kubernetes — cluster lifecycle, node pools, kubeconfig, version management

• Container Deployments (CaaS) — shared and dedicated container deployments with autoscaling

• Container Registry (CRaaS) — private container registry with vulnerability scanning

• Multiple output formats — table (default), JSON, YAML

• Global overrides — --project and --region flags on every command

• Self-update — ace update keeps you on the latest version
