api power

Control your API deployment’s power state with safe shutdown and restart options.

The API Power dashboard gives administrators complete control over the operational state of their API deployment. From this panel, you can perform a graceful shutdown, force stop, or initiate a power cycle when necessary. When an API is turned off, its IP address, data, and resources are retained—but billing continues until the instance is destroyed. The dashboard emphasizes system integrity, recommending graceful shutdowns to avoid data corruption. Power cycling provides a hard reset option, useful when the API becomes unresponsive. Together, these controls help ensure stable operations, reliable restarts, and precise resource management.

Power Management Controls

Manage your API’s runtime state safely through controlled shutdowns, restarts, and power cycles.

Graceful Shutdown

Safely shut down your API deployment, preserving data and preventing corruption.

Forced Shutdown Fallback

If a graceful shutdown fails, the system performs a forced stop as a recovery measure.

Power Cycle

Immediately hard reset the server when normal shutdowns are unavailable or unresponsive.

Resource Retention

Turned-off APIs retain their IP address, data, and hardware allocation for future reactivation.

Billing Transparency

Billing continues while the API is turned off; destroy the deployment to stop all charges.

FAQs

It provides administrators with tools to safely manage the operational state of their API deployment, including shutdowns, restarts, and power cycles.

A graceful shutdown stops all processes safely, ensuring that API data, sessions, and configurations are preserved without corruption.

Yes. Your deployment’s IP address, data, and allocated resources remain preserved even after a shutdown, though billing continues.

Use power cycling when your API becomes unresponsive or encounters an error that prevents normal operation—it performs a hard reset of the system.

No. Billing continues while the API instance retains its resources, IP, and data, even if it is powered off.

A graceful shutdown safely terminates all running processes, while a force stop immediately halts them, which may risk data loss or corruption.

Yes. You can restart the deployment at any time through the same dashboard controls, resuming operations without data loss.

Confirmation prompts and warnings are displayed before executing power commands to reduce the risk of unintended shutdowns or resets.

No. Power cycling resets the runtime environment but does not alter deployment settings, stored data, or configuration files.

It helps administrators maintain deployment stability, manage system integrity, and recover quickly from unresponsive states without external intervention.
