Login Screen for DCD Portal
Once you have logged in, you will see the Dashboard. The Dashboard shows a concise overview of your data centers, resource allocation, and options for help and support. You may click on the IONOS logo, in the Menu bar, at any time, to return to the Dashboard.
Inside the Dashboard, you can see the My Data Centers list and the Resource Allocation view. The Resource Allocation view shows the current usage of resources across your infrastructure.
Usually, clicking on a data center in the My Data Centers list opens the data center. However, if this is your first time using DCD, you will need to create your first Virtual Data Center (VDC). Learn how to set VDC defaults in the Setup a Data Center.
