Creating a Cluster

Function

This API is used to create clusters.

The cluster must run in a VPC. Before creating a cluster, you need to create a VPC and obtain the VPC and subnet IDs.

This API is an asynchronous API. It takes 10 to 15 minutes to create a cluster.

Currently, only standard data warehouses can be created via this API.
