# How-to: Infomaniak (the federation's cloud provider)

Operator-facing guides for getting the Magogi Foundation set up on **Infomaniak**,
the Swiss provider whose **Public Cloud** (standard OpenStack) the federation uses
for VMs and storage. `mgf-cloud` manages those resources; `mgf-fed` owns them.

Read in order:

1. **[01 — Account, profile & organization setup](01-infomaniak-account-and-organization.md)**
   — what Infomaniak is, creating an account, 2FA, the Organization / users /
   profiles, and billing — everything you need *before* Public Cloud.
2. **[02 — Activate Public Cloud + get your OpenStack credential](02-activate-public-cloud.md)**
   — order the Public Cloud project, pass identity verification, open the OpenStack
   (Horizon) dashboard, and create the Application Credential `mgf-cloud` reads.

Once both are done, the credential lives (git-ignored) at
`mgf-standard/my_stuff/tokens/infomaniak_clouds.yaml` and `mgf-cloud` /
`mgf-fed` can provision against your project. See the federation cloud library
[`mgf-cloud`](https://codeberg.org/magogi-admin/mgf-cloud) for what happens next.

> These guides are the durable form of the one-off setup walkthrough — keep them
> current as Infomaniak's Manager UI evolves.
