Quickstart

SaladCloud simplifies container deployment, allowing you to easily manage containers within your organization. In this step-by-step guide, we will walk you through the process of deploying a container using the SaladCloud Portal. Let’s get started!

​

Step 1: Log in to the SaladCloud Portal

1. Open your preferred web browser and navigate to the SaladCloud Portal.
2. Enter your login credentials (username and password) to access your account dashboard.

​

Step 2: Create a new Organization and Project

1. Within the dashboard, click on the “Create New Organization” button. (This assumes you’re not already part of an organization that you’ve been invited to)

2. Name the new organization and provide a project name.
3. Click on “Create” to set up the new organization and project.

​

Step 3: Create a Container Group

1. After creating the organization and project, SaladCloud will prompt you to select a product. Choose “Create Container Group” from the options presented.

​

Step 4: Configure the Container Group with the Set Up Wizard

1. On the configuration page, enter a name for your container group.

2. Provide the image name and source.

3. Specify the number of replicas (e.g., “5”) that you want to deploy

4. Optional : Specify Environmental Variables or Commands

5. Choose your machine hardware on the next page. You will be prompted to chose vCPU, memory size and GPU class. You can choose more than one GPU class if necessary.

   When users select multiple GPU classes, SaladCloud provides a estimated cost that reflects a range from the cheapest to the most expensive GPU selected within the chosen classes. This estimation helps users understand the cost implications of their GPU selection.

6. Configure your container connections. Note that the Container Gateway cannot be enabled after your container deployment is live.

7. Configure container monitoring and deploy your container.

​

Step 5: Start the Container Group

1. After the deployment is successful, navigate to the container configuration page.

2. You will see the details of your configured container. Click the “Start” button to initiate the container and push it into a running state.

👍 Congratulations!

You have successfully deployed a container using SaladCloud Portal. You can now manage and monitor your containers efficiently through the intuitive SaladCloud interface. Enjoy seamless containerization for your projects and applications.
