    Compute Nest:Create a fully managed service instance

    Last Updated:Jun 20, 2026

    A fully managed service instance is a service entity created through Compute Nest where the service provider provisions the resources and software. This topic describes how to create a fully managed service instance.

    Background information

    • If you create an instance from a Compute Nest deployment link, you can use either a customer deployment URL or a service provider deployment URL.

      User Deployment URL: After deployment, the service instance enters the Pending Deployment state. Because the instance uses the service provider's resources, the service provider must confirm the deployment. For more information, see Create an instance via customer deployment URL.

      Service Provider Deployment URL: The service provider enters a customer ID when creating the instance to complete the deployment for the customer. For more information, see Create an instance via provider deployment URL.

    • If you create an instance from the Alibaba Cloud Marketplace by using a Product URL (found by searching the homepage or provided by the service provider), you can skip the pending deployment state. For more information, see Create an instance from Alibaba Cloud Marketplace.

    This topic describes only the general deployment process for a service instance. For deployment details specific to a service, see the deployment documentation for that service.

    Create an instance via customer deployment URL

    1. Open the Compute Nest service deployment URL provided by your service provider, which opens the service instance deployment page.

      In the service deployment configuration information, find the Customer deployment URL row and click the copy icon to copy the deployment URL. The Deployment Link Permission is displayed as Restricted.

    2. From the Region drop-down list, select the region for the service instance.

      If you do not select a region, the instance is deployed in the default region of the service deployment.

    3. Optional: If the service supports PrivateLink, configure the following parameters in the Network Settings section.

      You can configure network information for multiple VPCs based on your private network access requirements. You can configure up to 10 VPCs.

      Parameter

      Description

      VPC

      Select the ID of the VPC used to access the cloud service. If no VPCs are available in the drop-down list, you can click Create VPC to open the Create VPC page and create a new VPC. For more information, see Create an IPv4 VPC or Create an IPv6 VPC.

      Security Group

      Select the ID of the security group used to access the cloud service. If no security groups are available in the drop-down list, you can click Security Groups to open the Create Security Group page and create a new security group. For more information, see Create a security group.

      Availability Zone and vSwitch

      Select the availability zone and vSwitch to access the cloud service. To access the service from multiple availability zones and vSwitches, click Add vSwitch to add additional availability zones and vSwitches.

    4. Optional: In the Tags and Resource Groups section, specify the resource group and tags for the new resources.

    5. Click Next: Confirm Order. On the confirmation page, review the service instance configuration.

      Note

      For a fully managed service, resources are deployed in the service provider's account. You are not charged for these resources, so a price preview is not shown.

    6. Click Create Now. After the service instance is created, you can click View Service to check the status of the service instance.

      After the service instance is created, you can find it on the Fully Managed Service tab. The instance status is Pending Deployment. Wait for the service provider to confirm the deployment.

    7. When the service status is Pending Deployment, contact the service provider. In the Service instance section, the service provider must click Deploy on the target service instance to complete the deployment.

      Note

      Cloud resource configurations vary by service. Configure the parameters based on your actual requirements.

    Create an instance via provider deployment URL

    1. The service provider clicks the Service Provider Deployment URL to open the service instance deployment page.

    2. On the Create a service instance page, enter the User ID.

      Important

      Service providers must verify the accuracy of the User ID.

    3. From the Region drop-down list, select the region for the service instance.

      If you do not select a region, the instance is deployed in the default region of the service deployment.

    4. Optional: If the service supports PrivateLink, configure the following parameters in the Network Settings section.

      You can configure network information for multiple VPCs based on your private network access requirements. You can configure up to 10 VPCs.
