Outscale
Connect your account
After the connection of your Outscale account, ScaleDynamics will create and manage resources in 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 an outscale account, you need to gather several information on your side: an accessKey, a secretKey, and a region.
