Procedure

Description

Verify prerequisites

Required.

Make sure the requirements in "Prerequisites" are met before you proceed to the subsequent steps.

If the cloud host has not been prepared for services, first configure the cloud host.

Create an application group

Required.

Create an application group to accommodate the applications used for the same purposes. When you create an application, you must assign it to an application group. Therefore, you must create application groups prior to applications.

Add application configuration

Optional.

Configure ConfigMaps and secrets for containers to prevent data from being destroyed or changed in container destruction or reboot. A container loads a ConfigMap or secret to obtain the data in the ConfigMap or secret. A ConfigMap stores non-confidential data, which a secret keeps sensitive data such as keys and credentials.

Create an application

Required.

Deploy a container image or application package as an application.
