A developer explores the new IBM Cloud Satellite and how to get an instance of Satellite up and running on your own machine.
Introduction
Recently IBM launched IBM Cloud Satellite. It surely looks like a game-changer in the multi-cloud world. While Satellite is fairly new, this is my attempt with a very basic setup in the IBM Cloud Chennai DC setup.
With IBM Cloud Satellite, you use your own compute infrastructure that is in your on-premises data center, other cloud providers, or edge networks to create a Satellite location. Then, you use the capabilities of Satellite to run IBM Cloud services on your infrastructure, and consistently deploy, manage, and control your app workloads.
Note that satellite deployments in IBM Cloud are used only for testing. For production workloads in your Satellite location, use on-premises, edge, or other cloud provider hosts.
In this tutorial you will learn how to:
- setup a satellite location in IBM Cloud Chennai DC.
- run Red Hat OpenShift in the satellite location.
- launch the OpenShift dashboard.
