Initial Infrastructure Setup

Set up the initial DuploCloud Infrastructure

Once your GCP project has been added to the DuploCloud Portal, the next step is to set up the first Infrastructure.

Creating an Initial Infrastructure

1. From the DuploCloud Portal, navigate to Administrator -> Infrastructure, and click Add.

2. Give the Infrastructure a Name, e.g., nonprod.

3. Select the appropriate Account.

4. Enter the VPC CIDR, e.g., 10.30.0.0/16 (Note: A /16 CIDR block is recommended for Kubernetes to accommodate its IP address requirements).

5. From the Cluster Mode list box, select GKE Standard.

6. From the GKE Endpoint Visibility list box, select Public (for production Infrastructures, set visibility to Private).

7. For the remaining fields, keep the default values.

8. Click Create. It will take approximately 15 to 20 minutes for the setup to complete. Monitor faults to see if any issues arise (NTP clock sync faults can be ignored).

When the Infrastructure setup is complete, a Plan with the same name as the infrastructure displays on the Plans page (Administrators -> Plans).
