Scaleway

Connect your account

To use our CaaS on Scaleway, you need to create a projet and provide rights to our CaaS. We will create infrastructure resources in that project. We don't need a global access to your account, only to one project (which is good for security). So, you can configure other services like a managed database in your Scaleway account, we will not see them.

danger

After the connection of your Scaleway account, ScaleDynamics will create and manage resources in one of your project of your account. You should not modify, create, or delete these resources to avoid non deterministic behaviors of the ScaleDynamics platform. To interact with ScaleDynamics, please use only our SDK command lines or our console (http://console.scaledynamics.com).

To connect a Scaleway account, you need to gather several information on your side.

What you need to get:

  • a projectId and a secretKey that provides access to that project management.
