Configuration reference for IBM Cloudability enablement
The IBM Cloudability Enablement deployable architecture (DA) requires two parameters to run:
- An IBM Cloud IAM API key with permissions to run the deployable architecture
- An IBM Cloudability API Key to add the IBM Cloud Account to Cloudability
See setting up the IBM Cloudability Enablement DA for information about these parameters and how to create them.
Supported regions
The DA supports deployment to any of the available Key Protect regions. Your Key Protect instance and Object Storage bucket are created in the same region. The default region is us-south
.
IBM Cloud recommends using one of the three Key Protect failover regions (us-south, jp-tok, and eu-de) to avoid any service disruptions.
