Getting started

As a cloud administrator, you can:

  • Set up BigAnimal with your existing Azure subscription, AWS account, or Google Cloud account.
  • Invite others to join you in exploring what EDB has to offer.
  • Create initial clusters as an account owner so that development can begin.

BigAnimal's portal can serve as an identity provider for users that have EDB accounts. After signing in for the first time, you can then set up your own identity provider.

Note

If you purchased from Azure Marketplace, you need to set up your Azure account to be your identity provider.
