#Cloud Quick Start

The shortest path from zero to a running deployment in ByteOr Cloud.

#Prerequisites

• Access to a ByteOr Cloud organization
• A project and environment created (or permissions to create them)

#Steps

#1. Sign In

Open the Cloud UI and authenticate through the browser flow.

#2. Set Up Your Environment

Create or select an organization, project, and environment. Environments are independent governance scopes — use separate environments for dev, staging, and production.

#3. Create a Pipeline

1. Create a new pipeline draft
2. Select the execution target: SingleRing for ordered linear execution, LaneGraph for branching and topology work
3. Author stages and connections in the editor
4. The editor projects the shared plan as either a linear canvas or a topology canvas depending on the target

#4. Compile a Version

1. Use preview to validate through the WASM-compiled compiler
2. Create a version — this produces an immutable compiled record
3. The version is content-addressed by spec hash

#5. Create a Config Bundle

1. Open the config bundle composer for the version
2. Start from a guided tuning profile
3. Override specific fields only when needed
4. The bundle is associated with your target environment

#6. Register an Agent

1. Create an enrollment token in the target environment
2. Use the token once to register the agent node
3. The control plane returns a per-agent runtime API key
4. The agent uses this key for all subsequent operations

#7. Deploy

1. Create a deployment targeting your version + bundle + environment
2. Provide approval if the environment requires it
3. The registered agent receives deployment targeting
4. Confirm heartbeats appear in the control plane

#8. Verify

Check that:

• The pipeline version exists as an immutable record
• The config bundle is readable from the environment
• The deployment is persisted and associated with the correct environment
• The agent is reporting heartbeats
• Effective tuning shows requested vs. applied settings

• Agent Installation — detailed agent enrollment guide
• Approvals — understand the governance model
• Incident and Replay — capture and replay workflows
