Creating a node from a Python code cell

To deploy a cell as a microservice, you need a checkpoint.

1. Open the  Checkpoints tab and save the checkpoint prepared for deployment.

2. Open the notebook and select the cell to be deployed.

3. Right-click to open the popup menu and select Deploy selected cell.

4. In the dialog box, enter the following:

   • In the Name field, enter the name of the node.
   • In the Select checkpoint to use for deployment drop-down list, select the desired checkpoint.
   • Under Output variables and Input variables, set the names and types of output and input variables for automatic API generation. You can add variables by clicking Add new.
   • In the Instance count field, enter the number of VMs in the node.

5. Click Create to create a node.

When you create a node, you'll see its ID at the bottom of the window. You can view all your created nodes on the Nodes tab.
