Create a Satellite

Before integrating Juno into your project, you need to create a satellite.

  1. To get started, sign-in to the Juno console. If you are a new developer on Juno and the Internet Computer, you may be prompted to create your first anonymous Internet Identity.
  2. Click Launch a new satellite.
  3. Enter a name for your satellite (note: this is for display purposes only and does not need to be unique).
  4. Confirm with Create a Satellite.
  5. The platform will then create your satellite smart contract and provision its resources.
  6. Once the process is complete, click Continue to access the overview page.
  7. You are all set! Start Building now 🚀

Advanced Options​

In the creation wizard, there are advanced options available for more experienced developers or those with specific requirements.

Selecting a Subnet​

If you wish to have more control over where your satellite is deployed, you can select the subnet for deployment during the creation process.

Below is a list of available subnets with relevant metadata to help you choose the most appropriate one:

note

Satellites operating on larger subnets with more nodes will incur higher cycle costs compared to those running on the standard 13-node subnets. However, this increased cost comes with the benefit of enhanced security due to the greater size of the subnet.

For standard applications, we generally recommend using the standard subnets and staying on the same subnets as Juno.
