GitLab¶
GitLab is a DevSecOps platform, providing a wide array of features.
Running your own installation in your private cloud will increase your security as well as give you control of where your data is stored.
To setup the service, first follow the general instructions on our Service catalog page. Then follow these instructions:
Give your service a name and optionally a description.
Select which availability zone you want to provision in. We recommend the europe-se-1a availability zone.
If you want backup, check the “backup” checkbox and select an amount of days you want your history stored.
Select your instance flavor. We recommend sticking with the default.
Select your SSH-key.
Under Local network, select the network on which you want to run the service.
If you want your service publicly available on the internet, you can assign a floating IP (this can also be done later) by checking the Public access checkbox.
If you don’t use a floating IP, you can only access it locally in your network or by using some kind of ingress solution like a VPN.
Press Create. You will get further details on how to connect to the service.
