 The system currently includes support for the following:
 
+- Fully API-driven, with OpenAPI specification for all APIs.
 - Multiple users, registered via email and/or invited to join Archives.
 - Crawling centered around Archives which are associated with an S3-compatible storage bucket.
 - Users may be part of multiple archives and have different roles in different archives

 - Crawl status is tracked in the DB (possible crawl states include: Completed, Partially-Complete (due to timeout or cancelation), Cancelation, Failure)

+## Deploying to Docker
+
+To deploy via local Docker instance, copy the `config.sample.env` to `config.env`.
+
+Docker Compose is required.
+
+Then, run `docker-compose build; docker-compose up -d` to launch.
+
+To update/relaunch, use `./docker-restart.sh`.
+
+The API should be available at: `http://localhost:8000/docs`
+
+
+Note: When deployed in local Docker, failed crawls are not retried currently. Scheduling is handled by a subprocess, which stores active schedule in the DB.
+
+
+
+## Deploying to Kubernetes
+
+
+To deploy to K8s, `helm` is required. Browsertrix Cloud comes with a helm chart, which can be installed as follows:
+
+`helm install -f ./chart/values.yaml btrix`
+
+This will create a `browsertrix-cloud` service in the default namespace.
+
+For a quick update, the following is recommended:
+
+`helm upgrade -f ./chart/values.yaml btrix ./chart/ --recreate-pods
+
+
+Note: When deployed in Kubernetes, failed crawls are automatically retried. Scheduling is handled via Kubernetes Cronjobs, and crawl jobs are run in the `crawlers` namespace.

 Browsertrix Cloud is currently in pre-alpha stages and not ready for production.
