Note

If you have an email account configured for using Single Sign-On (SSO) with StreamNative Cloud, use that email address and password when signing up.

To sign up, navigate to the StreamNative Cloud Console login page. Follow the prompts to create an account. After you click Finish, you might have to wait briefly for your first organization to be created. After your new organization is created, continue on to creating your first instance and cluster.

If you want to deploy a BYOC cluster, you must first create a Cloud Environment into which a Pulsar Instance & Cluster can be deployed. If not, you can continue on with these instructions.

  8. On the Cluster Size page, configure the cluster, and then click Payment.

    • On the Basic tab, select custom sizing options.
