Certified Containers Deployment

The platform includes well-known software stacks that have been pre-configured and managed to make deployment and management easier. These approved containers go through extensive testing and optimization specifically for platform use.

Regular software upgrades, as well as additional integrations such as auto-optimization depending on given resources, automated SSL certificate installation, application deployment, and built-in auto-clustering, are available for customization.

Step 1: To deploy certified containers, open the topology wizard and click the “New Environment” option. This will walk you through the deployment procedure, step by step.

Step 2: Navigate to the tab for your choice of programming language (Java, PHP, Ruby, .NET, Node.js, or Python).

Step 3: Certified containers can be added via the topology section on the left side of the wizard. Stacks are classified by their purpose:

• Load Balancers: Entry points for distributing incoming requests and balancing load among several nodes.
• Application Servers (Compute Nodes): Web servers that host your application.
• Databases (SQL & NoSQL): Database solutions for storing and managing data.
• Cache Node: The Memcached object caching solution accelerates web applications by lowering database load.
• Shared Storage: Dedicated storage node with NFSv4 capability, more disk space, and better performance.
• Elastic VPS: Virtual private servers can run CentOS, Ubuntu, Debian, or Windows.
• Build Node: Create an automation tool for Java projects.
• Extra (Custom Layers): Additional services, including any of the aforementioned stacks.

Utilize this section as a tool to visualize and conveniently adjust your topology.

Step 4: The platform offers a variety of certified container alternatives for each function inside your environment’s topology. Simply click on the appropriate section to see a selection of popular options. For example, certified load balancers come in the following options:

If you can’t find the stack you’re looking for, use the “More” option to browse other categories (such as application servers and databases), or simply input the name to search all of the platform’s certified templates.

Step 5: In the wizard’s center portion, you can configure settings for new nodes. Certified containers may also provide additional functionality, such as Auto-Clustering.

That is it! Click “Create” and wait a few minutes for the environment with certified containers to complete deployment.
