gantry is a delivery mechanism for Software as a Service. You just deposit cryptocurrency into the gantry and a private instance is created for you.

Goals
  • Enable SaaS that lasts
  • Require no personal information to sign up

Using the SaaS vending machine

To provision a new instance through gantry, you first generate a new account ID from the service's gantry dashboard. This can also be done from the API:

curl -X POST gantry.example.com/xmr/provision

The account ID is actually a crypto wallet address that's permanently linked to your instance. All you have to do is send funds to your account ID which will automatically extend your instance's lease.

You can send any amount to your account ID and the added time scales according to the service's configuration. You can request the current rates from the API:

curl -X POST gantry.example.com/xmr/rates

Once you've added some time to your instance's lease, it can be accessed from <account id>.example.com.
