TigerGraph Cloud free-tier solutions (subject to limits) offer a small-scale analytics platform to store and query your graph data.
Free-tier solutions are for training, learning, and light scale proof of concept (POC) use cases and do not support backup and restore. For in-depth POCs, consider adding a valid payment method and use paid-tier solutions to access the backup and restore feature.
After logging in, you will be directed to the dashboard page, on the right side of the page, click My Solutions.
On the My Solutions page, click Create Solution.
Not all TigerGraph versions that are offered on-prem are offered on TigerGraph Cloud. In the dropdown list, choose the version of TigerGraph you want to run.
TigerGraph Cloud Starter Kits are built with sample graph data schema, dataset, and queries focused on a specific use case to help you get started quickly.

After you have selected a starter kit, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Next.
