Preparing the Zulu Installation Platform

Zulu can be installed on either Windows, macOS, or Linux systems. It can be installed in a cloud, in a virtual machine, or a physical system. See the Zulu Release Notes for the list of system requirements.

Microsoft Azure cloud service provides a method to directly install Zulu into a virtual machine. Other cloud service providers, such as Amazon AWS, require that you create a virtual machine first, then install Zulu into the virtual machine.

Before you proceed with Zulu installation steps, ensure you implemented the following preparation tasks:

• Identify the Tasks to Install Zulu in Your Environment
• Prepare for Zulu through Microsoft Azure Cloud
• Prepare for Zulu on Amazon AWS
• Prepare for Zulu on Other Cloud Service
• Prepare for Zulu on a Physical or Virtual Machine
• Validate Downloaded Packages
• Attach Azul Package Repositories
