# Deployment options

Nutrient DWS Processor API is a hosted service. For an overview of all available task endpoints, pricing, and getting started, see the [Processor API overview](/api/processor-api/). We also offer [Document Engine](https://www.nutrient.io/sdk/document-engine/getting-started.md), which comes with extended functionality and is hosted in your own infrastructure.

For information on deploying Document Engine, refer to the [Document Engine guides](https://www.nutrient.io/guides/document-engine/intro.md).

Document Engine can also be delivered as a managed service. [Contact our Sales team](https://www.nutrient.io/contact-sales/?=sdk) for details.
