# Quick Start
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Managed VictoriaMetrics - is a database-as-a-service platform, where users can run the VictoriaMetrics
|
||
|
|
that they know and love on AWS without the need to perform typical DevOps tasks such as proper configuration,
|
||
|
|
monitoring, logs collection, access protection, software updates, backups, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## How to register
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Managed VictoriaMetrics id distributed via [AWS Marketplace](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-4tbfq5icmbmyc).
|
||
|
|
To start using the service, one should have already registered AWS account
|
||
|
|
and visit [VictoriaMetrics product page](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-4tbfq5icmbmyc).
|
||
|
|
See more details [here](https://dbaas.victoriametrics.com/howToRegister).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Creating instance
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Instances is a page where user can list and manage VictoriaMetrics single-node instances.
|
||
|
|
To create an instance click on the button `Create`:

|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the opened form, choose parameters of the new instance such as:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* `Instance type` from preset of AWS instances (you always can change the type later);
|
||
|
|
* `Region` and `Zone` where instance should run;
|
||
|
|
* Desired `disk size` for storing metrics (you always can expand disk size later);
|
||
|
|
* `Retention` period for stored metrics.

||
|

|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once created, instance will remain for a short period of time in `PROVISIONING` status
|
||
|
|
while the hardware spins-up, just wait for a couple of minutes and reload the page.
|
||
|
|
You'll also be notified via email once provisioning is finished:

|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Access
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After transition from `PROVISIONING` to `RUNNING` state, VictoriaMetrics is fully operational
|
||
|
|
and ready to accept write or read requests. But first, click on instance name to get the access token:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

||
|
|

|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Access tokens are used in token-based authentication to allow an application to access the VictoriaMetrics API.
|
||
|
|
Supported token types are `Read-Only`, `Write-Only` and `Read-Write`. Click on token created by default
|
||
|
|
to see usage examples:

|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Follow usage example in order to configure access to VictoriaMetrics for your Prometheus,
|
||
|
|
Grafana or any other software.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Modifying
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Remember, you always can add, remove or modify existing instances by changing their type or increasing the disk space.
|
||
|
|
However, such an update requires an instance restart and may result into a couple of minutes of downtime.
