In the case you already have an instance, a VM or a bare server and you want to transform it as a Container machine that can be running in a public cloud or on-premise, and you want to manage it with out CaaS, meaning our platform will take care of container service management.

  • be running an amd64 linux based operating system, distribution Debian 10, Debian 11, or CentOs 7,
  • have a public IP,
  • have port 443 opened from everywhere all time,
  • During the connection step, have port 22 opened for the remote Address: 35.233.111.9. Note that ssh root login is disabled and can only be used using a private key.

Script to download

We provide a add-runner script to setup and provision the instance, VM or server to ScaleDynamics as a Runner. After being added, the new runner works as others, so you can deploy and run containers, access metrics...

add-runner script is available for some Linux distributions
