Get started¶
From an invitation to an instance you can log in to over SSH. Follow the steps in order the first time; each takes a few minutes.
-
Accept your invitation, create your account and set up your second factor.
-
2. Find your way around the console
The scope selector, the menu, lists, create pages and following a change.
-
3. Understand your organization
People, projects and the two kinds of role.
-
Choose its location, a quota preset and its first network.
-
Add an SSH key, start an instance with a public IP, log in and clean up.
What you need¶
- An invitation to an organization on NubeStack Cloud. NubeStack Cloud is open by invitation; if you have none, contact NubeStack.
- An authenticator app on your phone for your second factor.
- An SSH key pair on your computer, for logging in to Linux instances. No key yet? Run
ssh-keygen -t ed25519.
Then build something¶
Each tutorial combines several services into one working result.
-
An instance with cloud-init, open on ports 80 and 443, reachable at a public IP.
-
Serve an application over HTTPS
A load balancer with your certificates in front of two instances, for several domains.
-
Attach, format and mount a volume, snapshot it and restore it.
-
A web tier and a database on private networks, with only the web tier public.
-
A launch template and an instance group that keeps a number of instances running.
-
A service account, an API key and a script that creates and cleans up.
