Compute console
The Compute section of the Quake AI console (web interface) lets you create, monitor, and manage virtual machines and their supporting resources. Select Services > Compute to access the Compute console pages.
Console pages#
- Instances: view, launch, stop, resize, and delete virtual machines
- Apps: deploy pre-configured applications from the app catalog
- Instance snapshots: capture and manage point-in-time images of running instances
- Flavors: browse available CPU, memory, and disk size presets
- Images: manage OS templates and custom images used to boot instances
- Key pairs: create and import SSH public keys for instance access
- Server groups: define affinity and anti-affinity placement policies

To launch your first virtual machine from the console, see Instances. You need at least one key pair for SSH access before creating an instance.
