Check your quotas

To successfully deploy a cluster on Civo using Northflank you must have the required resources available to your account. Civo quotas are account-wide rather than region-specific.

You can view your account quota in your Civo settings on the quota page , and request quota increases from this page. Provisioning Northflank clusters will require sufficient quotas for instances, CPUs, RAM, Disk, and Volumes.

Learn more on the Civo documentation on quotas .

Create a new cluster in the Northflank application

Configure node pools

You can now configure the node pools for your cluster. Node pools can also be added, deleted, and updated after creating your cluster. Click add node pool to add another pool.

Minimum cluster requirements

Each cluster requires at least one node pool, and a combined minimum of 4 vCPU and 8GB memory across all node pools.

See deploy and scale node pools for more information on configuring nodes and node pools.

Spot instances are not available on Civo.

Configure advanced options

After adding your initial node pools you can configure advanced options for the cluster, such as build infrastructure and resource request modifiers.

When you create the cluster Northflank will begin installing system components in node pools according to their capacity. This may take up to 20 minutes.

Deploy to private nodes

Northflank deploys your Civo cluster using the default network and firewall. All nodes on Civo clusters will have public internet ingress and egress available.
