--- name: azion-deploy-the-sql-database-starter-kit description: >- Deploy a JavaScript CRUD project connected to a SQL Database from Azion Console, with the repository, application, and domain it needs. --- # Deploy the SQL Database Starter Kit You deploy the SQL Database Starter Kit from Azion Console, and the deployment builds a JavaScript CRUD project on [SQL Database](/en/documentation/platform/sql-database/). The deployment creates a GitHub repository holding the project, an application, a database, and a domain that reaches the application from a browser. The template runs on [Application Accelerator](/en/documentation/platform/applications/#application-accelerator), [Functions](/en/documentation/platform/functions/), and [Cache](/en/documentation/platform/applications/#cache). --- ## Prerequisites - SQL Database enabled on your account. The product is in Preview and is not enabled by default, so request access through [Technical Support](/en/documentation/support/). The number of databases each plan includes is on [SQL Database limits](/en/documentation/platform/sql-database/limits/). - A GitHub account. The deployment creates the project repository under it, and every push to that repository is deployed automatically. - An account that reaches Azion Console. Refer to [How to access Azion Console](/en/documentation/guides/platform/account-and-billing/how-to-access-azion-console/). - The products the template runs on can generate usage costs. Refer to [Pricing](/en/documentation/fundamentals/pricing/#sql-database). --- ## Deploy the template You obtain and configure the template from Azion Console. To start the deployment: 1. **Open the template in Azion Console** Access the [SQL Database Starter Kit](https://console.azion.com/create/azion/edgesql-starter-kit) template in [Azion Console](https://console.azion.com/). The configuration form opens, carrying the fields the deployment reads. Fields marked with an asterisk are mandatory. --- ## Set up the template The form asks for the GitHub connection that creates the repository and for the name the deployed resources take. To set up the template: 1. **Connect Azion with your GitHub account** A window opens to confirm the installation of the [Azion GitHub App](/en/documentation/guides/application-development/automation/azion-github-app/), which connects your GitHub account with Azion. Define your permissions and repository access there. 2. **Select the Git Scope** 3. **Name the application** Enter a name for the application. The storage bucket and the function take the same name, so use a unique and memorable one. A name already in use is refused with an error message. 4. **Start the deployment** Select **Deploy**. A window shows the logs while the deployment runs. When it finishes, the page shows the information about the application and the options to continue. > **Note** > > The link on the finished page opens the application in a browser. The application takes a few minutes to propagate across Azion's distributed infrastructure, so the address can stay inactive until the propagation finishes. --- ## Manage the template The settings the deployment writes are a starting point, and every one of them is edited from Azion Console afterwards. To reach the settings of the application: 1. **Open the application list** Access [Azion Console](https://console.azion.com/) > **Applications**. The page lists every application your account created. 2. **Select the application** Find the application the template created and select it. The list is ordered alphabetically, and the search filters by **Application Name** only. The application opens on the page that carries every setting you can configure. For more information, refer to [Applications quickstart](/en/documentation/platform/applications/quickstart/) and [Create and manage databases](/en/documentation/guides/application-development/data/manage-sql-database/). ### Add a custom domain The deployment assigns the application an Azion Workload domain, in the format `xxxxxxxxxx.map.azionedge.net/`, and that address reaches the application from a browser. A custom domain reaches the same application under a name of your own. For more information, refer to [Add a custom domain to a workload](/en/documentation/guides/platform/migration/configure-a-domain/). --- ## Next steps - [Create and manage databases](/en/documentation/guides/application-development/data/manage-sql-database.md): Create, list, retrieve, and delete the databases the template reads and writes. - [Create tables and query data](/en/documentation/guides/application-development/data/create-tables-sql-database.md): Define the tables of the deployed database, insert rows, and read them back with SQL. - [Query a database from a function](/en/documentation/guides/application-development/data/retrieve-data-with-functions.md): Reach the database from a function and return its rows to a request. - [SQL Database limits](/en/documentation/platform/sql-database/limits.md): The name, column, and page-size bounds, and the usage each plan includes.
