NexQloud Knowledge Base

Getting Started with Application Deployment on Decentralized Cloud Infrastructure

Deploying your first application on NexQloud is designed to be straightforward and intuitive, whether you're implementing cloud native application development practices or migrating from traditional cloud computing platforms. Our deployment process leverages the advantages of decentralized infrastructure while providing familiar workflows for developers and operations teams accustomed to enterprise cloud computing services and cloud engineering services.

The deployment process supports various application types and frameworks, from simple web applications to complex kubernetes management tools and artificial intelligence at the edge applications. Our platform automatically optimizes resource allocation across our distributed network to ensure optimal performance and cloud cost optimization for your applications.

Application Deployment Process:

Prerequisites and Setup:

1. Account Preparation:
   
   • Ensure your NexQloud account is active and properly configured
   • Verify billing information and available credits or subscription limits
   • Set up team access and permissions if deploying as part of an organization
   • [Information Needed - minimum account requirements and verification steps]
2. Application Assessment:
   
   • Review your application architecture and dependencies
   • Identify resource requirements (CPU, memory, storage, network)
   • Determine scaling requirements and expected traffic patterns
   • [Information Needed - application compatibility assessment tools]

Deployment Methods: 3. Web Console Deployment:

• Access Deployment Dashboard - Navigate to "Applications" → "Deploy New Application"
• Choose Deployment Type - Select from web app, API service, database, or custom configuration
• Application Configuration:
  
  • Upload application files or connect to code repository
  • Configure environment variables and secrets
  • Set resource allocation and scaling policies
  • Configure networking and domain settings
• Review and Deploy - Verify configuration and initiate deployment

4. Advanced Deployment Options:
   
   • Multi-Cloud Management - Deploy across multiple regions for redundancy
   • Edge Computing Integration - Leverage edge locations for improved performance
   • Hybrid Cloud Solutions - Integrate with existing cloud infrastructure
   • Container Orchestration - Use kubernetes clusters for complex applications

Post-Deployment Management: 5. Monitoring and Optimization:

• Monitor application performance and resource utilization
• Set up alerts and notifications for critical events
• Configure automated scaling based on demand patterns
• [Information Needed - available monitoring and alerting capabilities]

6. Maintenance and Updates:
   
   • Implement automated deployment pipelines for updates
   • Configure backup and disaster recovery procedures
   • Set up logging and debugging tools
   • [Information Needed - application update and rollback procedures]

Deployment Best Practices:

• Start Small: Begin with a simple application to familiarize yourself with the platform
• Resource Planning: Properly estimate resource needs to optimize cloud cost management
• Security Configuration: Implement appropriate security policies and access controls‍
• Performance Testing: Test application performance under various load conditions
