Create Instances

After you log in to the Oracle Cloud My Services Dashboard, you create instances of the Cloud services available in your Cloud Account.

To create a new instance:

1. Click Create Instance in the Welcome section of the My Services Dashboard.
2. In the resulting dialog box, select one of the Cloud Services.

   Follow the instructions on the screen to get started. Depending on the service, you will be prompted to create a new instance or to learn more about the types of instances you can create.

   For example, if you select Compute Classic, then you’re directed to the first screen of a wizard, which guides you through the process of creating your first Compute Instance (or VM).

   If you select Database, then you’re directed to the Services page of Database Cloud Service console. From there, click Create Service to create your first Database instance.
