This guide walks you through the step-by-step process of deploying a Konstack for an Environment
What are Konstacks?
Konstacks are the core infrastructure resources in Cloudsania that allows users to provision, configure, and manage cloud instances within their environments. It simplifies the process of deploying compute resources such as EC2, ECS instances, ensuring seamless scalability, availability, and reliability.
How To Deploy a Konstack
To deploy a new Konstack Instance, follow these steps:
Step 1: Select Your Preferred Compute Konstack
-
Navigate to the Projects tab in the Cloudsania dashboard.
-
Locate the Project and environment where you want to deploy the Konstack for.
-
Click on the `View Environment’ option to access the environment’s details.
-
Under the ‘Konstacks’ tab, you will find all the available compute stacks.
-
Click on the preferred Compute Konstack to start the configuration process.
Step 2: Configure the Konstack Instance
-
Enter an ‘Instance Name’ that describes your deployment (e.g, clousania-dev-server)
-
Choose an ‘Instance Type’ (e.g., t2.micro, t2.nano, t2.small, etc.).
-
Set the Minimum Active Instances (ensures availability).
-
Set the Maximum Active Instances (defines the scaling limit).
Step 3: Complete the Konstack Setup
-
Click ‘Setup Konstack’ to deploy the instance.
-
Upon successful deployment, the new instance will now appear under ‘My Konstacks’ with details on status, date created, and assigned cloud region.
Managing Konstacks
