This section describes how to add a standard account in a public cloud provider to your Abiquo cloud platform for Amazon AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and OCI. A standard account is not a partner or a reseller or an organization account.

For partner, reseller, or organization accounts, see Onboard an Azure CSP or AWS organization account

To add Abiquo public cloud integrations to an existing Abiquo platform:

  1. Obtain your public cloud credentials for a standard account for compute and pricing/billing.

    1. Obtain AWS credentials

    2. Obtain Azure ARM credentials

    3. Obtain Google Cloud Platform credentials

    4. Obtain OCI credentials

  2. If you wish to display billing dashboard data, then there may be extra steps for some providers. See Display cloud provider billing data

  3. Modify user roles to add public cloud. See Modify user roles to add public cloud

  4. Create a public cloud region. See Create a public cloud region

  5. Create or edit a standard enterprise (with NO reseller or key node option):

    1. For Credentials, enter credentials for public cloud providers

      1. For billing only, for AWS, see Add a customer AWS account for billing only

    2. For Properties, enter metadata, such as customer account IDs and billing dashboard configuration. See Display cloud provider billing data. You can also push enterprise properties to VM variables. Do not add confidential data.

  6. Run billing: edit the enterprise and go to CredentialsPricing and click the right arrow button, or go to the Billing tab, select the provider, and click Regenerate billing

  7. If the credentials have compute capabilities, and there are VMs for the subscription, you can capture the VMs to manage them with Abiquo by onboarding their virtual network (to create a virtual datacenter in Abiquo). See Onboard from public cloud
