# Managed Kubernetes

## Outcome

Provision a managed Kubernetes cluster on AWS, GCP, or Azure that is ready for a Pinot deployment.

## Overview

These guides walk you through creating a managed Kubernetes cluster on your cloud provider. Once the cluster is running, you will use the [Kubernetes install](https://docs.pinot.apache.org/start-here/install/kubernetes) page to deploy Pinot onto it.

## Cloud providers

| Provider              | Service    | Guide                                                                                    |
| --------------------- | ---------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Amazon Web Services   | Amazon EKS | [AWS setup](https://docs.pinot.apache.org/start-here/install/managed-kubernetes/aws)     |
| Google Cloud Platform | Google GKE | [GCP setup](https://docs.pinot.apache.org/start-here/install/managed-kubernetes/gcp)     |
| Microsoft Azure       | Azure AKS  | [Azure setup](https://docs.pinot.apache.org/start-here/install/managed-kubernetes/azure) |

## Next step

Once your cluster is ready, follow the [Kubernetes install guide](https://docs.pinot.apache.org/start-here/install/kubernetes) to deploy Pinot.
