# Deploying Kaltura Clusters
Below are **RPM** based instructions for deploying Kaltura Clusters.
Refer to the [All-In-One Kaltura Server Installation Guide](https://github.com/kaltura/platform-install-packages/blob/master/doc/install-kaltura-redhat-based.md) for more notes about deploying Kaltura in RPM supported environments.
Refer to the [Deploying Kaltura Clusters Using Chef](https://github.com/kaltura/platform-install-packages/blob/master/doc/rpm-chef-cluster-deployment.md) for automated Chef based deployments.
### Before You Get Started Notes
* If you see a `#` at the beginning of a line, this line should be run as `root`.
* Please review the [frequently answered questions](https://github.com/kaltura/platform-install-packages/blob/master/doc/kaltura-packages-faq.md) document for general help before posting to the forums or issue queue.
* All post-install scripts accept answers-file as parameter, this can used for silent-automatic installs.
* For a cluster install, it is very important to pass an [answer file](https://github.com/kaltura/platform-install-packages/blob/master/doc/kaltura.template.ans) to each script because otherwise, the MySQL 'kaltura' passwd is autogenerated by the installer. This is fine for a standalone server but for a cluster, passwd must be the same on all.
* [Kaltura Inc.](http://corp.kaltura.com) also provides commercial solutions and services including pro-active platform monitoring, applications, SLA, 24/7 support and professional services.
