This page explains how to create a RabbitMQ deployment using the Scaleway console.

<Requirements />

- A Scaleway account logged into the [console](https://console.scaleway.com)
- [Owner](/iam/concepts/#owner) status or [IAM permissions](/iam/concepts/#permission) allowing you to perform actions in the intended Organization


1. Click **RabbitMQ** in the **Integration Services** section of the console. The Cloud Essentials for RabbitMQ dashboard displays.

2. Click **+ Create deployment**. A creation form displays.

3. Select a RabbitMQ version for your deployment.

4. Select a region where your resource will be deployed.

5. Select a deployment configuration. You can choose between:

    - **High availability**: Ensures fault tolerance in case of node failure, workload distribution across all nodes for improved performance, and service continuity during rolling updates.
    - **Standalone**: General purpose single-node deployment for testing environments and non-critical, small-scale applications, without redundancy.

6. Choose a node type for your deployment. For more information, refer to the [documentation about choosing between shared and dedicated compute resources](/rabbitmq/reference-content/shared-vs-dedicated-resources/).

7. Define a storage capacity for each node. The total storage size for your deployment depends on the number of nodes provisioned.

8. Configure at least one type of network connectivity for your deployment:
    - Attach an existing Private Network, or create a new one, to securely communicate with other resources within this Private Network.
    <Message type="note">
    **Private Network limitation**: The Private Network must have Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) enabled.
    </Message>

    - Set up public connectivity to access your deployment over the public internet.

    <Message type="note">
    **Endpoint limitations**: Each Cloud Essentials for RabbitMQ deployment is limited to a maximum of **one public endpoint** and **one private endpoint**. You cannot create multiple endpoints of the same type for a single deployment.
    </Message>


9. Create credentials to log in to your RabbitMQ deployment. These credentials will grant `admin` access to the user.

10. Enter a name for your deployment, or keep the automatically generated one.

11. Review the estimated cost for your deployment, then click **Create deployment** to finish.

You are directed to the **Overview** tab of your deployment.
