Step 3: Set Up Your Cloud Environment

Once logged in, you’ll be guided through setting up your AWS environment to enable Nekt to operate within your cloud:

  1. Select Your AWS Region: Choose the region where your AWS resources will be deployed.
  2. Set Up the AWS Stack:
    • Click the Start workspace set up button to open the AWS CloudFormation setup.
    • Follow the prompts in the AWS Console to deploy the stack.
    • Once the stack is successfully created, Nekt automatically configures the necessary permissions and settings.
