# Deploying with KubeAI

[KubeAI](https://github.com/substratusai/kubeai) is a Kubernetes operator that enables you to deploy and manage AI models on Kubernetes. It provides a simple and scalable way to deploy vLLM in production. Functionality such as scale-from-zero, load based autoscaling, model caching, and much more is provided out of the box with zero external dependencies.

Please see the Installation Guides for environment specific instructions:

- [Any Kubernetes Cluster](https://www.kubeai.org/installation/any/)
- [EKS](https://www.kubeai.org/installation/eks/)
- [GKE](https://www.kubeai.org/installation/gke/)

Once you have KubeAI installed, you can
