+# OSMO Deployments
+
+This directory contains all resources for deploying OSMO on various cloud providers and environments.
+
+> ⚠️ **Note:** These scripts deploy a **minimal version of OSMO** without authentication.
+> Users will interact with OSMO as a **guest user**. For production deployments with
+> authentication (SSO, LDAP, etc.), refer to the [full deployment guide](https://nvidia.github.io/OSMO/main/deployment_guide/).
+
+## Quick Start
+
+**Deploy OSMO Minimal with one command:**
+
+```bash
+# Azure deployment
+cd scripts
+./deploy-osmo-minimal.sh --provider azure
+
+# AWS deployment
+cd scripts
+./deploy-osmo-minimal.sh --provider aws
+```
+
+## Directory Structure
+
+```

+```
+
+## Deployment Options
+
+### 1. Automated Scripts (Recommended)
+
+The easiest way to deploy OSMO. The scripts handle infrastructure provisioning and OSMO deployment automatically.
+
+📖 **[scripts/README.md](scripts/README.md)** - Full documentation
+
+```bash
+cd scripts
+./deploy-osmo-minimal.sh --provider azure  # or aws
+```
+
+**Features:**
+- Interactive configuration prompts
+- Terraform infrastructure provisioning
+- Automatic secret creation (database, Redis, MEK)
+- Helm chart deployment
+- Post-deployment verification
+
+**Limitations (Minimal Deployment):**
+- No authentication - all users access as **guest**
+- Development/testing purposes only
+- Not recommended for production without additional configuration
+
+### 2. Terraform Only
+
+For users who want to provision infrastructure separately and have more control.
+
+📖 **[terraform/azure/example/README.md](terraform/azure/example/README.md)** - Azure Terraform docs
+📖 **[terraform/aws/example/README.md](terraform/aws/example/README.md)** - AWS Terraform docs
+
+```bash
+cd terraform/azure/example
+terraform init
+terraform apply
+```
+
+### 3. Helm Charts Only
+
+For users who already have Kubernetes infrastructure and want to deploy OSMO directly.
+
+📖 **[charts/](charts/)** - Helm charts
+
+> **Note:** Before installing Helm charts manually, you must create:
+> - Kubernetes namespaces (`osmo-minimal`, `osmo-operator`, `osmo-workflows`)
+> - Database secrets (`db-secret` with PostgreSQL password)
+> - Redis secrets (`redis-secret` with Redis password)
+> - MEK ConfigMap (Master Encryption Key)
+> - The PostgreSQL database itself
+>
+> **Recommended:** Use the deployment script which handles all prerequisites.
+> You'll need to provide your existing infrastructure details:
+
+```bash
+cd scripts
+
+# Set environment variables for your existing infrastructure
+export POSTGRES_HOST="your-postgres-host.database.azure.com"
+export POSTGRES_USERNAME="postgres"
+export POSTGRES_PASSWORD="your-password"
+export REDIS_HOST="your-redis-host.redis.cache.windows.net"
+export REDIS_PASSWORD="your-redis-password"
+
+./deploy-osmo-minimal.sh --provider azure --skip-terraform
+```
+
+## Supported Platforms
+
+| Platform | Status | Documentation |
+|----------|--------|---------------|
+| **Azure** (AKS) | ✅ Fully Supported | [scripts/README.md](scripts/README.md) |
+| **AWS** (EKS) | ✅ Fully Supported | [scripts/README.md](scripts/README.md) |
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Terraform** >= 1.9
+- **kubectl**
+- **Helm**
+- **Cloud CLI** (`az` for Azure, `aws` for AWS)
+
+## Post-Deployment Access
+
+After deployment, access OSMO via port-forwarding:
+
+```bash
+# Access OSMO UI
+kubectl port-forward svc/osmo-ui 3000:80 -n osmo-minimal
+# Open: http://localhost:3000
+
+# Access OSMO API
+kubectl port-forward svc/osmo-service 9000:80 -n osmo-minimal
+# Open: http://localhost:9000/api/docs
+```
