How to Create a Public Cloud Project

This guide will take you through the steps of creating your first Public Cloud project.

Creating a project is the first step in deploying Public Cloud instances.

Requirements

• Access to the OVHcloud Control Panel

Instructions

To begin, log in to the OVHcloud Control Panel. Click Public Cloud in the navigation bar at the top of the screen. Once in the Public Cloud space, click the Create your first OVH Public Cloud project button.

On the "Create a Public Cloud project" page, enter a title for your project in the Project name field and click the Create my project button to proceed to the order funnel.

NOTE: As part of our anti-fraud check, the "Order summary" page lists a $30.00 charge for the first project added to an account. The charge will be a credit that gets applied to your first bill. Any additional projects added to an account will not incur this initial charge and will simply be charged according to resource consumption.

Click Continue to proceed with your order.

On the next page:

1. Confirm your billing address and contact information.
2. Add or confirm your payment method.
3. If not already done, accept the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy.
4. Click Continue.

By default, the available resources for a project are 20 instances (servers), 20 vCores (CPU), and 40 GB of RAM. An increase in the resource limit may be requested by submitting a ticket to our Customer Support team.

Congratulations on securing your first public cloud project!
