You get your own Castopod instance in your Nodion project. The difference: Nodion runs the servers, so there is no machine of your own to install and maintain.

What should I do after the first deploy?

Open /cp-install and complete the setup wizard to create the admin account. There is no default password. Episode media goes to object storage.
