Launching an instanceΒΆ
To launch a new compute instance in Binero cloud, you have four main options as outlined in the links below.
Each option have its advantages and disadvantages:
The cloud management portal is what we recommended and will get a user with limited prior knowledge from A to B quickly. The tradeoff is that advanced features are not always available.
OpenStack Horizon is the web interface included in OpenStack. Some advanced features might only have a GUI implementation here.
OpenStack terminal client is a command line implementation giving terminal oriented users a quick way to access the cloud. The learning curve is steeper than the GUI implementation but the workflow will be efficient.
The API is the full OpenStack REST API. Its intended for users that are either writing infrastructure as code or integrate with third-party applications that needs to reach the APIs directly.
Note
To create an instance, you will first need to know what flavor you want and what image to boot from.
If you have not configured SSH-keys (for Linux) or networking yet, you might want to do some initial configuration first.
