Getting started

Getting started with whycloud

Create an account and organization, connect your infrastructure and deploy your first workload.

Before you begin

Create an account and organization. Bring a Docker-enabled host or Kubernetes cluster with the whycloud Operator when deploying to customer-owned infrastructure.

Step 1: Sign in and select an organization

Authenticate with a supported account method and create or select your organization and environment.

Step 2: Connect Docker or Kubernetes

Enroll a host agent or install the Kubernetes Operator with Helm. The Operator initiates outbound control-plane connections; store enrollment tokens in Kubernetes Secrets.

Step 3: Deploy an application

In Cloud → PaaS choose the target, application name, supported Compose or Docker Run input, CPU, RAM and replica count. Review port exposure before publishing.

Step 4: Observe operations

Follow the queued operation, progress stages, host health, version history and reported service status. Health data freshness depends on the latest agent report.
