Custom ISO

Quake AI concept: Images

• Vultr names the feature "Custom ISO" and describes it as attaching and booting custom ISO images on a VX1 Cloud Compute instance, rather than an OpenStack Glance-style image library. The canonical docs only state that this can be done through the Vultr Console or API, and do not describe an image-upload workflow on the page. Vultr Docs
• The docs page does not present custom images as a first-class separate resource with its own API schema on this page. Instead, it frames the capability as boot-time ISO attachment for flexible OS installation, which is operationally different from OpenStack images that are typically pre-registered boot images used directly at instance create time. Vultr Docs
• Marketplace software is surfaced as a separate product category from Custom ISO. Vultr's Marketplace page for NetBird explicitly calls it a "Marketplace One-Click Application" and says provisioning automates configuration after DNS resolves, which is a packaged deployment flow rather than a raw image import or attach action.

• The available canonical sources here do not document OpenStack-style metadata, ownership, or image-sharing semantics for these Vultr offerings. The page only states that custom ISO can be attached and booted and that marketplace apps deploy automatically, so any finer-grained image lifecycle behavior is not specified in the canonical docs.
