These are Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates for deploying DataStax Enterprise (DSE). If you're new to this, the DataStax Deployment Guide for Azure is a good place to start.
| Directory | Description |
|---|---|
| extensions | Common scripts that are used by all the templates. In ARM terminology these are referred to as Linux extensions. |
| singledc | Bare bones template that deploys a 3 node cluster. |
Important Note: To use these deployments scripts, you must first deploy a cluster through Azure Marketplace here. This is because these templates use a VM image and the only way to accept the EULA for the image is through the marketplace. By accepting the EULA once, your Azure subscription becomes enabled to deploy this VM through other methods like the CLI.
Command line deployments can be accomplished using the Azure CLI or Azure PowerShell. We typically recommend the CLI as it is cross platform and can be used on Windows, Linux and the Mac. This repo also provides shell scripts that work with the Azure CLI. Detailed instructions on installing the Azure CLI are available here.
Post deploy steps can be found at the Azure Deployment Guide here.
