Introduction

Procedure

The basic operations include creating a fleet, adding clusters to the fleet, and managing the lifecycles of clusters. By performing the basic operations, you can easily deploy, manage, and expand containerized applications in multiple clusters across clouds and regions.

Figure 1 shows the general process of using UCS. This process may slightly vary depending on the cluster type and management purpose. For details, see corresponding documents.
