 GenAIExamples offers flexible deployment options that cater to different user needs, enabling efficient use and deployment in various environments. Here’s a brief overview of the three primary methods: Python startup, Docker Compose, and Kubernetes.
 
-1. <b>Docker Compose</b>: Check the released docker images in [docker image list](./docker_images_list.md) for detailed information.
-2. <b>Kubernetes</b>: Follow the steps at [K8s Install](https://github.com/opea-project/docs/tree/main/guide/installation/k8s_install) and [GMC Install](https://github.com/opea-project/docs/blob/main/guide/installation/gmc_install/gmc_install.md) to setup k8s and GenAI environment .

 Users can choose the most suitable approach based on ease of setup, scalability needs, and the environment in which they are operating.

-## Support Examples
+### Deployment Guide
+
+Deployment are based on released docker images by default, check [docker image list](./docker_images_list.md) for detailed information. You can also build your own images following instructions.
+
+#### Prerequisite
+
+- For Docker Compose based deployment, you should have docker compose installed. Refer to [docker compose install](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/).
+- For Kubernetes based deployment, we provide 3 ways from the easiest manifests to powerful [GMC](https://github.com/opea-project/GenAIInfra/tree/main/microservices-connector) based deployment.
+  - You should have a kubernetes cluster ready for use. If not, you can refer to [k8s install](https://github.com/opea-project/docs/tree/main/guide/installation/k8s_install) to deploy one.
+  - (Optional) You should have GMC installed to your kubernetes cluster if you want to try with GMC. Refer to [GMC install](https://github.com/opea-project/docs/blob/main/guide/installation/gmc_install/gmc_install.md) for more information.
+  - (Optional) You should have Helm (version >= 3.15) installed if you want to deploy with Helm Charts. Refer to the [Helm Installation Guide](https://helm.sh/docs/intro/install/) for more information.
