The MarQi Cloud community forums
The forums are where platform questions get answered in public rather than disappearing into a private ticket. They are aimed at people actually running workloads: architecture questions, configuration problems, migration experiences and the trade-offs behind them.
What gets discussed
Typical threads cover virtual machine sizing and KVM behaviour, block and object storage design, VPN, load balancing and private networking, snapshot and restore strategy, and GPU workload placement for training and inference. Because the platform is open source underneath, answers can point at the real component rather than a black box.
When to use the forums, and when not to
Use the forums for design questions, comparisons and anything where another operator's experience is useful. For account-specific or urgent operational issues use the support and ticket portal, which reaches the on-call engineers directly, and check the status page first if you suspect a platform-wide problem. Longer written material lives on the engineering blog.
Frequently asked questions
What are the forums for?
Platform questions answered in public rather than disappearing into a private ticket — architecture questions, configuration problems, migration experiences and the trade-offs behind them. They are aimed at people actually running workloads.
What topics come up most?
Virtual machine sizing and KVM behaviour, block and object storage design, VPN and private networking, snapshot and restore strategy, and GPU workload placement for training and inference.
When should I open a ticket instead?
For account-specific or urgent operational issues use the support and ticket portal, which reaches the on-call engineers directly. Check the status page first if you suspect a platform-wide problem.
Can I get an answer from an actual engineer?
Yes. Because the platform is open source underneath, answers can point at the real component rather than a black box, and the engineers who operate the platform take part.
