This guide walks you through the end-to-end setup of ApsaraDB for MyBase: from creating a dedicated cluster to migrating your data and making your database instances available to applications.
Set up ApsaraDB for MyBase
Step 1: Create a dedicated cluster
Create a dedicated cluster to define the resource boundary for your database hosts and instances. A dedicated cluster is the top-level container — all hosts and instances belong to it. A dedicated cluster is formerly known as a host group. You must create a dedicated cluster before you can use any other ApsaraDB for MyBase features.
After you create a cluster, you can view, modify, or delete it. For details, see Manage ApsaraDB for MyBase dedicated clusters.
Step 2: Create a host
Create a host inside your dedicated cluster. You must create a host before you can create instances.
Step 3: Create an instance
Create an instance on the hosts in your dedicated cluster.
The system automatically assigns instances to hosts based on the resource allocation policy you specify during instance creation.
Step 4: Migrate data
Migrate your data to ApsaraDB for MyBase using Data Transmission Service (DTS). You can use DTS to read data from the instances in your dedicated cluster.
