Architecture-First Hosting Control Plane

Operate websites, DNS, SSL, mail and platform services from one deterministic control surface.

AuraPanel is built for teams who need low-risk operations at scale. It combines runtime transparency, role-based security, and decoupled architecture so your websites keep serving even when panel components are updated.

Website and DNS Lifecycle

Provision domains, synchronize vhosts, and manage DNS zones/records with clear runtime state.

SSL and Security Operations

Issue certificates, enforce boundary-aware access controls, and run operational security checks.

Mail and Database Workflows

Manage mailbox stacks and database lifecycles with repeatable operational runbooks.

Automation and Observability

Track service health, migration status, backup integrity, and drift across critical modules.

Why AuraPanel

Built for teams that value control, reliability, and auditable automation.

AuraPanel rejects cosmetic completeness. If an operation is not backed by real host integration, it should not be shown as successful. This protects teams from hidden operational risk.

Operational Honesty

Unsupported flows return explicit outcomes instead of silent success illusions.

Decoupled Reliability

Control plane changes do not become unplanned website downtime events.

Future-Ready Design

API-first direction for GitOps, autonomous operations and AI-assisted infrastructure workflows.

Live Demo

Explore AuraPanel safely on a strict read-only environment.

The demo account can inspect dashboards, modules and workflows, but all mutating actions are blocked at gateway level.

Read-Only Safety Model

Demo mode blocks create/update/delete operations, service control actions, and DB tool entry paths for the demo account. This protects host state while preserving full product visibility.

Comparison

AuraPanel vs CyberPanel, cPanel and Plesk

Technical positioning snapshot focused on architecture, transparency, security direction and operational control.

Area AuraPanel CyberPanel cPanel/WHM Plesk
Core Approach Decoupled control plane and deterministic runtime operations OpenLiteSpeed-centric panel workflows Mature commercial standard for shared hosting Commercial platform with extension-first ecosystem
Serving vs Control Separation Strong architectural requirement Deployment dependent Typically integrated operation model Integrated model with modular add-ons
Operational Transparency Host-backed endpoint honesty and explicit states Varies by module and deployment practice Stable abstractions, less low-level visibility by default Rich abstractions with extension-driven behavior
Security Direction Zero-trust defaults and fail-closed behavior Core hardening tools available Enterprise controls via commercial stack Strong controls via paid security extensions
Best Fit Teams needing transparent, deterministic ops and deep control OLS-focused teams prioritizing fast setup Businesses standardized on cPanel workflows Teams needing broad marketplace integrations

Turkce Dokumantasyon

Architecture

Control-plane boundaries and integration model

Understand how AuraPanel isolates concerns and protects serving reliability.

Operations

Install, validate, scale and recover

Follow practical runbooks and acceptance criteria for production consistency.

Migration

Move from legacy panels with reduced risk

Use phased migration and validation checkpoints to avoid high-impact cutovers.

Operator Workflow

Three-step path to stable hosting operations.

01

Bootstrap

Deploy on supported operating systems and validate runtime readiness with acceptance checks.

02

Secure

Apply role boundaries, firewall policy, and hardening controls before onboarding tenants.

03

Scale

Expand websites, DNS zones, mailboxes and services through deterministic operational loops.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about AuraPanel architecture and operations.

How do I install AuraPanel on a fresh server?

Use a supported Linux host and run:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mkoyazilim/aurapanel/main/install.sh | sudo bash

Then verify login, service health, SSL issuance and DNS operations.

How is AuraPanel different from standard panels?

AuraPanel emphasizes decoupled architecture, runtime honesty, and deterministic automation over cosmetic workflow completeness.

Does AuraPanel support migration from CyberPanel/cPanel/Plesk?

Yes. Use phased migration with inventory, pilot tenants, validation matrix, and rollback checkpoints.

Can websites keep serving if the panel is restarted?

That is a core architectural target. AuraPanel separates serving path from control plane runtime.

Can I contribute roadmap input?

Yes. Join the community page and share production use-cases, migration constraints, and hardening requirements.
