Setting Up Domain tcsbank.cloud

To set up our infrastructure, we needed to purchase a domain name for the project. While many domain name providers are available, we chose Namecheap due to its affordability and ease of use.

Domain Selection

• We visited Namecheap to search for an appropriate domain name.

• The domain selected was TCSBANK.CLOUD.

  💡 Domain Meaning:

  • TCS stands for The Cloud Squad, which is the name of the project team.
  • BANK reflects the banking app we’re deploying.
  • The .cloud TLD aligns with the cloud-native nature of the application.

  Hence, the domain TCSBANK.CLOUD was chosen to represent our deployment environment.

Domain Purchase Process

• Searched for TCSBANK.CLOUD on the Namecheap homepage.

• The domain was available, so we:

  • Added it to the cart.
  • Logged in to a Namecheap account.
  • Proceeded to checkout.

• Payment was made using a Geepay card.

• Upon successful payment, a confirmation email was received from Namecheap.
