# Authentication

Reach out to us through your contact at Cedana or <founders@cedana.ai> to get an account!

Once logged in, you'll be redirected to an account management page, where you can create an API key. If you've logged in via your organization's email address, you'll be able to create and manage organization-wide API keys as well.

Once you have obtained an API key, you can set up and start using Cedana with your system of choice via either:

* [Cedana for Kubernetes](https://github.com/cedana/cedana-gitbook/blob/main/cedana-kubernetes/installation.md)
* [Cedana for SLURM](https://github.com/cedana/cedana-gitbook/blob/main/cedana-slurm/installation.md)
* Cedana on Bare-Metal (see [Cedana Daemon documentation](https://docs.cedana.ai/daemon/))
