Create your cluster

Once you have met the prerequisites, you are ready to create your Streams Messaging cluster in CDP Public Cloud using a default cluster definition. For this, you must select the cluster definition that matches your cloud provider for the environment and further choose from the light and heavy duty options available.

Once you have met the prerequisites, you are ready to create your Streams Messaging cluster using a default cluster definition.

  1. Log into the CDP web interface.
  2. Navigate to Management Console > Environments, and select the environment where you would like to create a cluster.
  3. Click Create Data Hub.
    The following page is displayed:
