Step 4: Create a Service

In this exercise, we will create a simple Google Cloud Nginx service. When you run the application, DuploCloud accesses Docker images in a preconfigured Docker Hub.

When you run your own applications, you will choose a public image or provide credentials to access your private repository. Before you deploy your own applications, configure your Docker Registry credentials in DuploCloud.

Estimated time to complete Step 4: 10 minutes.
