## Using Dify
- **Cloud </br>**
We host a [Dify Cloud](https://dify.ai) service for anyone to try with zero setup. It provides all the capabilities of the self-deployed version, and includes 200 free GPT-4 calls in the sandbox plan.
- **Self-hosting Dify Community Edition</br>**
Quickly get Dify running in your environment with this [starter guide](#quick-start).
Use our [documentation](https://docs.dify.ai) for further references and more in-depth instructions.
- **Dify for enterprise / organizations</br>**
We provide additional enterprise-centric features. [Schedule a meeting with us](https://cal.com/guchenhe/30min) or [send us an email](mailto:business@dify.ai?subject=[GitHub]Business%20License%20Inquiry) to discuss enterprise needs. </br>
> For startups and small businesses using AWS, check out [Dify Premium on AWS Marketplace](https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/pp/prodview-t22mebxzwjhu6) and deploy it to your own AWS VPC with one-click. It's an affordable AMI offering with the option to create apps with custom logo and branding.

## Quick start
> Before installing Dify, make sure your machine meets the following minimum system requirements:
>
>- CPU >= 2 Core
>- RAM >= 4GB
</br>
The easiest way to start the Dify server is to run our [docker-compose.yml](docker/docker-compose.yaml) file. Before running the installation command, make sure that [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/) and [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/) are installed on your machine:
```bash
cd docker
docker compose up -d
```
After running, you can access the Dify dashboard in your browser at [http://localhost/install](http://localhost/install) and start the initialization process.
> If you'd like to contribute to Dify or do additional development, refer to our [guide to deploying from source code](https://docs.dify.ai/getting-started/install-self-hosted/local-source-code)
## Next steps
If you need to customize the configuration, please refer to the comments in our [docker-compose.yml](docker/docker-compose.yaml) file and manually set the environment configuration. After making the changes, please run `docker-compose up -d` again. You can see the full list of environment variables [here](https://docs.dify.ai/getting-started/install-self-hosted/environments).
If you'd like to configure a highly-available setup, there are community-contributed [Helm Charts](https://helm.sh/) which allow Dify to be deployed on Kubernetes.
