How to deploy Drupal?

Spheron allows you to deploy a compute instance pre-installed with Drupal, all set up and ready to use. To deploy Drupal:

1. Upon logging in, you'll be directed to the Create Organization page, where you can give your organization name and choose Avatar. Ensure the "Compute" option is selected from the drop-down menu of the "Start With" option. Click 'Continue'.
2. Next, you'll be taken to a new page. Click the "Create New Projects" button. Add 'Project Title' And 'Project Description' and Click 'Create'.
3. Choose "Compute" to use CPU-based instances for running containers.
4. Choose your desired Compute Type option under Compute Type.
5. Click "Start from Marketplace App" and Select "Drupal" from the marketplace.
6. When selecting a region, we recommend starting by trying to deploy in a region closer to you. If you encounter any issues, you can consider switching to other regions. Choosing a region closer to you can improve performance and reduce latency. Click here to know more.

Verify Installation

Drupal can be accessed only after the Compute Instance is provisioned. Thus, you need to wait for the installation to complete before you can start using it.
