Working with Miren Cloud

Miren Cloud is a central control plane that connects and manages your Miren clusters. While Miren runs fully standalone on your own infrastructure, connecting to Miren Cloud gives you:

  • Team management and access control
  • Automatic data backup and sync
  • Multi-environment workflows

Miren Server Installation (with Cloud)​

When you run miren server install, it will automatically register a new cluster to Miren Cloud and redirect you to create your miren.cloud organization and account:

NOTE: The install requires systemd at present.

sudo miren server install

By default, you will have full access to your new cluster. Permissions can be tweaked using RBAC rules if needed.

Miren Server Installation within Docker​

If you're on a platform other than Linux (or a Linux platform without systemd available), you can install the server into a docker container:

miren server docker install

Install Standalone​

To skip cloud registration and run standalone:

sudo miren server install --without-cloud

Login​

Authenticate with miren.cloud:

miren login

This will open a browser window to complete authentication.

Check Your Identity​

See who you're logged in as:

miren whoami

Register Your Cluster​

Connect your local cluster to miren.cloud:

miren server register -n my-cluster

This registers your cluster and enables cloud features.

NOTE: By default, servers are already registered when doing miren server install.

View Your Clusters​

List all clusters associated with your account:

miren cluster list

Switch Clusters​

If you have multiple clusters, switch between them:

miren cluster switch my-other-cluster
