Self-Service Cluster Provisioning Compute Details
< cloud | self-service cluster creation workflow
Overview
Before configuring your self-service cluster, it's important to understand the available specifications and what can be changed:
- Cluster Plans
- The configuration of your self-service cluster is governed by a cluster plan. This includes cluster specifications, cluster network settings, cluster bootstrap packages, and other cloud provider-specific configurations.
- Administrators have preconfigured cluster plans and made them available to your workspace. Use the provided descriptions and details to select the most appropriate plan.
- While you cannot modify the cluster plan itself, you can choose to get notified of the latest published cluster plan version or you can set your cluster to use a specific cluster plan version.
info
Selecting "Follow published versions" means Wayfinder will notify you when a new published cluster plan version is available. New upgrade versions are disaplayed under the Upgrades tab.
Note that your CI/CD checked-in yaml definition will NOT include the cluster plan version for "followPublished: true" tags.
- Compute Templates
- A compute template defines the node pool configuration for your cluster.
- Administrators have preconfigured compute templates for your workspace. Review the descriptions to choose the right one for your requirements.
- You can customise the compute configuration within the provided templates:
- Edit the node pool by clicking the pencil icon.
- Add multiple node pools or opt to have none, depending on your needs.
