-Use this page to find the type of solution that best fits your needs.
+Depending on your requirements such as ease of maintenance, security, control, available resources, and level of expertise to operate and manage a Kubernetes cluster, there are various solutions available. You can deploy a Kubernetes cluster on a local machine, cloud, on-prem datacenter; or choose a managed Kubernetes cluster. You can also create custom solutions across a wide range of cloud providers, or bare metal environments.
 
-Deciding where to run Kubernetes depends on what resources you have available 
-and how much flexibility you need. You can run Kubernetes almost anywhere, 
-from your laptop to VMs on a cloud provider to a rack of bare metal servers. 
-You can also set up a fully-managed cluster by running a single command or craft 
-your own customized cluster on your bare metal servers.
+You can create a Kubernetes cluster in learning and production environments.

-## Local-machine Solutions

+If you want to get familiar with Kubernetes, you can use the Docker-based solutions. You can use tools that are supported by the Kubernetes community or the tools in the ecosystem to set up a Kubernetes cluster on a local machine.

-A local-machine solution is an easy way to get started with Kubernetes. You
-can create and test Kubernetes clusters without worrying about consuming cloud
-resources and quotas.
-
-You should pick a local solution if you want to:
-
-* Try or start learning about Kubernetes
-* Develop and test clusters locally
-
-Pick a [local-machine solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#local-machine-solutions).
-
-## Hosted Solutions
-
-Hosted solutions are a convenient way to create and maintain Kubernetes clusters. They 
-manage and operate your clusters so you don’t have to.  
-
-You should pick a hosted solution if you:
-
-* Want a fully-managed solution
-* Want to focus on developing your apps or services  
-* Don’t have dedicated site reliability engineering (SRE) team but want high availability
-* Don't have resources to host and monitor your clusters 
-
-Pick a [hosted solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#hosted-solutions).
-
-## Turnkey – Cloud Solutions
-
-
-These solutions allow you to create Kubernetes clusters with only a few commands and 
-are actively developed and have active community support. They can also be hosted on 
-a range of Cloud IaaS providers, but they offer more freedom and flexibility in 
-exchange for effort. 
-
-You should pick a turnkey cloud solution if you:
-
-* Want more control over your clusters than the hosted solutions allow
-* Want to take on more operations ownership 
-
-Pick a [turnkey cloud solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#turnkey-cloud-solutions)
-
-## Turnkey – On-Premises Solutions
-
-These solutions allow you to create Kubernetes clusters on your internal, secure,
-cloud network with only a few commands.
-
-You should pick a on-prem turnkey cloud solution if you:
-
-* Want to deploy clusters on your private cloud network
-* Have a dedicated SRE team
-* Have the resources to host and monitor your clusters
-
-Pick an [on-prem turnkey cloud solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#on-premises-turnkey-cloud-solutions).
-
-## Custom Solutions
-
-Custom solutions give you the most freedom over your clusters but require the 
-most expertise. These solutions range from bare-metal to cloud providers on 
-different operating systems.
-
-Pick a [custom solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#custom-solutions).
