1
00:00:01,710 --> 00:00:04,000
Hopefully, you have now signed up for a digital ocean accounts.

2
00:00:04,410 --> 00:00:08,280
Once you're at the screen right here, we're then going to create a new Cuban Eddys cluster.

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:12,510
So as soon as we create this cluster, that is when you're going to start being billed for some amount

4
00:00:12,510 --> 00:00:12,930
of money.

5
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:15,870
Just keep that in mind if you ever walk away from this course.

6
00:00:15,900 --> 00:00:20,790
You do need to come back to this digital ocean dashboard and terminate the cluster and I'll show you

7
00:00:20,790 --> 00:00:21,270
how to do that.

8
00:00:21,300 --> 00:00:22,140
It is very easy.

9
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:26,970
First, of course, we do have to create the cluster trying to find the green create button at the top

10
00:00:26,970 --> 00:00:29,760
right hand side, and we're going to create a cluster.

11
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:39,140
We're then going to be prompted with a series of different questions, first of these version, you

12
00:00:39,140 --> 00:00:40,670
can use any version you see right here.

13
00:00:40,890 --> 00:00:42,410
Best to just leave it at the default.

14
00:00:43,650 --> 00:00:48,600
Next up is the data center region pricing between regions is identical with digital ocean.

15
00:00:48,690 --> 00:00:51,000
I'm pretty sure I could be wrong on that in the day.

16
00:00:51,060 --> 00:00:53,190
The region you select doesn't make a big difference.

17
00:00:53,430 --> 00:00:56,490
Just make sure you select something that is physically close to you in the world.

18
00:00:56,760 --> 00:01:00,180
It's just gonna reduce latency a little bit as you're trying to work with the cluster.

19
00:01:01,940 --> 00:01:06,660
For VPC network, we can leave that at the default and then the only setting here that really makes

20
00:01:06,660 --> 00:01:09,240
a difference for us right now is the cluster capacity.

21
00:01:09,730 --> 00:01:14,640
This is where we are going to add in summit number of nodes or essentially virtual machines to run all

22
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:15,480
of our different pods.

23
00:01:16,380 --> 00:01:19,890
By default, you should see something that says standard nodes right here.

24
00:01:21,110 --> 00:01:23,780
And have the ten dollar a month option selected.

25
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:24,890
That's what we want.

26
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,440
We want the ten dollar a month note selected right here.

27
00:01:28,710 --> 00:01:31,170
We're then going to make sure we have at least three notes.

28
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:35,610
You technically can't get away with two, but you might have a hard time running our application with

29
00:01:35,610 --> 00:01:36,390
only two nodes.

30
00:01:36,660 --> 00:01:38,310
I would really recommend sticking it with three.

31
00:01:40,540 --> 00:01:42,550
You can see that we're gonna be paying about thirty dollars a month.

32
00:01:43,300 --> 00:01:45,700
Now, you might recall the diagram I showing you just a moment ago.

33
00:01:45,700 --> 00:01:47,200
I said forty dollars a month over here.

34
00:01:47,500 --> 00:01:50,980
Well, we're going to also pay ten dollars for a load balancer as well.

35
00:01:51,100 --> 00:01:51,850
Ten dollars a month.

36
00:01:52,180 --> 00:01:53,790
That's where the extra ten dollars comes from.

37
00:01:56,060 --> 00:01:59,980
Then going to go down to the very bottom and we can set a name for our cluster.

38
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:01,960
You will be given a default name right here.

39
00:02:02,020 --> 00:02:05,140
I do recommend you update it to something that just makes sense to you.

40
00:02:05,230 --> 00:02:07,630
So for me, I'm going to call it simply ticketing.

41
00:02:09,620 --> 00:02:11,280
Well, then go ahead and create the cluster.

42
00:02:13,770 --> 00:02:16,750
And that's pretty much it when you first create the cluster.

43
00:02:16,770 --> 00:02:19,890
It's going to take some number of minutes for it to first boot up.

44
00:02:20,430 --> 00:02:24,210
You can see a little progress bar up here and they're quoting me about four minutes or so.

45
00:02:24,630 --> 00:02:25,200
Who knows?

46
00:02:25,410 --> 00:02:28,710
So we're going to take a pause right here and just let this thing do it stuff.

47
00:02:29,220 --> 00:02:33,450
We'll come back the next video once everything is completed, setting up and we're going to make sure

48
00:02:33,450 --> 00:02:37,970
that we can deploy our application to it through a get hub deployment pipeline.
