Getting Started with LYNIO Cloud

Welcome to LYNIO Cloud! This guide will walk you through the essential steps to get your first environment up and running.

1. Creating a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

Before deploying any compute resources, you need a secure network foundation.

1. Navigate to the Networking tab in the LYNIO Console.
2. Click Create VPC.
3. Choose your preferred European region (e.g., eu-west-1 for Amsterdam).
4. Define your CIDR block (default is 10.0.0.0/16).

# Example LYNIO CLI command to create a VPC
lynio network vpc create --name "my-first-vpc" --region "eu-west-1"

2. Launching a Compute Instance

Once your VPC is ready, you can deploy a virtual machine.

• Go to Compute > Instances.
• Select Deploy New Instance.
• Choose an OS image (e.g., Ubuntu 24.04 LTS).
• Select your instance size (e.g., c1.medium).
• Assign it to the VPC you created earlier.

Best Practices

• Always use SSH keys instead of passwords.
• Assign a Floating IP only if the instance needs to be publicly accessible.
• Regularly snapshot your instances.
