# CT Log Deployment (Containerized) This document provides links to instructions for deploying a Trillian-based Certificate Transparency (CT) Log using containers on a cloud platform; this make the steps and components from the [Manual Deployment](ManualDeployment.md) document more convenient and automated, but the same principles apply. ## Core Trillian Services As a first step, the core [Trillian cloud deployment](https://github.com/google/trillian/tree/master/examples/deployment/README.md) document describes how to run a local Docker deployment of the core Trillian services together with a storage component (MySQL), based on sample [Docker files](https://github.com/google/trillian/blob/master/examples/deployment/docker) and a [Docker Compose manifest](https://github.com/google/trillian/blob/master/examples/deployment/docker-compose.yml). Further instructions describe how to deploy the core Trillian components on [Google Cloud Platform (GCP)](https://github.com/google/trillian/blob/master/examples/deployment/kubernetes/README.md), and on [Amazon Web Services (AWS)](https://github.com/google/trillian/blob/master/examples/deployment/aws/README.md). ## CTFE Personality The `examples/deployment/` subdirectory includes [Kubernetes instructions](../examples/deployment/kubernetes/README.md) for deploying a CTFE personality on top of an existing deployment of the Trillian core services.
