Installation Overview
Installing the DynamoAI platform follows three stages, in order:
- Environment Dependencies: verify everything your environment must provide, per cloud, before the deployment window starts.
- Deploy: install the platform with Helm, in three layers.
- Deployment Validation: run the acceptance checks that prove the platform is operational.
Before starting, read the Platform Architecture page for the install model, and Resource Guidelines to size compute for your expected workload.
Environments running the earlier dynamoai-base three-chart layout follow the Legacy Installation guide for stage 2 instead.

Workstation Tools
The engineer driving the deployment needs these command-line tools:
| Tool | Used For |
|---|---|
| Helm | Installing and managing the platform charts |
| kubectl | Interacting with the Kubernetes cluster |
| Docker | Container image management and mirroring |
| Cloud CLI (AWS, Azure, gcloud, or oc for OpenShift) | Provisioning or configuring cloud infrastructure directly |
| Terraform or equivalent | Only if infrastructure (cluster, IAM, queues) is provisioned as code |
