Introduction

Deploying database instances efficiently is a key requirement for modern applications. This guide explains how and where NovaCloud users can quickly provision MongoDB or a MongoDB Cluster directly within the Customer Portal using the pre-configured One-Click Applications feature to accelerate database deployment.

Prerequisites

Access to the IPServerOne Customer Portal
Sufficient Cloud Credits in account

Before diving into the launching cloud instance, you may refer to the guidance below, as there are being used across this guidance.

To register and login into our Customer Portal
-> [How to register and login to Customer Portal]
To configure Security Group for the cloud instance, you may consider as the simple firewall for the cloud instance
-> [Configure Security Group in IPServerOne Customer Portal]
If you wish to unify the Public Key for all cloud instance, you may generate a Public Key before launching the cloud instance
-> [How to Create Public Key for the Cloud Server in Customer Portal]
If you have existing Public Key, you may consider import the Public Key
-> [How to Import Public Key(s) for the Cloud Server in Customer Portal]
To create a Project for your cloud instance for easier managing, and you are having an option to assign the Project later
-> [How to Create Project(s) in Customer Portal]
-> [How to assign instance(s) to a project group in Customer Portal]
To login the cloud instance via SSH

Step-by-step guide

Step 1: Launching new cloud instance

Locate and click on the NovaCloud in the left-hand navigation menu to access NovaCloud resources page

Click on Cloud Instances to navigate to the cloud instance management page

Initiate the process for deploying a new cloud instance by clicking the Launch Instance

Select Create Instance from One-Click Application for provisioning instances pre-installed with your chosen application or database

Step 2: Select application for the cloud instance

MongoDB

MongoDB is a popular, source-available, cross-platform, document-oriented database. Classified as a NoSQL database, it stores data in flexible, JSON-like documents rather than traditional rigid rows and tables, making it highly scalable and ideal for modern, rapidly evolving software applications

To Create MongoDB instance from One-Click Application

Ensure the Category is selected as Database

Select the specific application – MongoDB

Choose the required MongoDB version you wish to deploy

Choose the appropriate resource plan (CPU, RAM, data transfer limits) for the cloud instance

Important Note ⚠️: You can optionally choose a RAM Optimised plan if your needs require higher performance characteristics, which is particularly suitable for data storage applications.

Define the volume size for the cloud instance

Associate the instance with an existing project (if desired) and provide a unique name for the cloud instance

Select the necessary Public Key and copy the provided MongoDB login information

MongoDB Cluster

A MongoDB cluster is a group of connected servers or instances that work together to host your databases. It provides high availability, fault tolerance, and horizontal scalability. Clusters are typically implemented either as Replica Sets (for redundancy) or Sharded Clusters (for distributing large datasets).

To Create MongoDB Cluster from One-Click Application

Ensure the Category is selected as Database

Select the specific application – MongoDB Cluster – Primary Node or MongoDB Cluster – Secondary Node

Choose the required MongoDB Cluster – Primary Node version or MongoDB Cluster – Secondary Node version you wish to deploy

Choose the appropriate resource plan (CPU, RAM, data transfer limits) for the cloud instance

Important Note ⚠️: You can optionally choose a RAM Optimised plan if your needs require higher performance characteristics, which is particularly suitable for data storage applications.

Define the volume size for the cloud instance

Associate the instance with an existing project (if desired) and provide a unique name for the cloud instance

Select the necessary Public Key and copy the provided MySQL login information

Step 3: Verify launched cloud instance

Important Note ⚠️: You don’t have to fill up all the field on Section 3, 4 and 5. Read and follow the step below for these 3 sections.

If you HAVE NOT created any Security Group, you may consider follow the selection here and our system will assist to create the Security Group for the cloud instance

If you HAVE created Security Group, you may select and apply the Security Group to the cloud instance

A confirmation pop-up will appear. Review the specifications, scroll to the bottom, and click Create to launch the cloud instance

Click the Instances button in the confirmation pop-up to navigate to the list of Cloud Instances

Your request to launch the instance has been queued, and the provisioning process is underway (status “Creating” or “Active”)

Conclusion

By following this guidance, you can successfully deploy a standalone MongoDB instance or a distributed MongoDB Cluster using the One-Click Applications feature in the NovaCloud Customer Portal.
