# Deploying to Google Cloud Platform

Our recommended deployment approach on Google Cloud Platform is using [Helm](https://www.nutrient.io/guides/document-engine/deployment/helm.md) on [GKE](https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine), Google’s managed [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/) service. Alternatively, any self-managed Kubernetes flavor may be used. Refer to our [Kubernetes deployment](https://www.nutrient.io/guides/document-engine/deployment/kubernetes.md) guide for more information.

Document Engine can successfully operate within other means of deployment, but we currently don’t provide documentation for alternative services.
