# Deployment overview

> One-click deployment options for Synthetiq apps

Synthetiq enables one-click production deployments for apps built on the platform. When you deploy an app, Synthetiq automatically packages your application, provisions cloud infrastructure, runs database migrations, and launches your app behind a globally distributed CDN. No CI/CD pipelines, Dockerfiles, or infrastructure configuration required.

## Infrastructure models

Deployed apps run on cloud infrastructure. Synthetiq supports two models for where that infrastructure lives:

### Bring Your Own Infrastructure (recommended)

You provision the Synthetiq deployment pipeline in your own cloud account. Apps are still deployed with one click from the Synthetiq console, but the underlying infrastructure runs in your account under your control.

* You retain full ownership of compute, networking, and data storage
* All application data stays within your cloud account
* You manage your own DNS, TLS certificates, and network policies
* You can apply your organization's compliance, security, and data residency requirements
* A cross-account trust policy allows the Synthetiq platform to trigger deployments without accessing your application data

This is the recommended model for production workloads, especially apps that handle sensitive or regulated data.

<Note>
  Synthetiq currently supports AWS for Bring Your Own Infrastructure deployments. Support for additional cloud providers is planned — see [Supported platforms](/docs/platform-docs/deployments/supported-platforms).

### Synthetiq Hosted

Synthetiq provisions and manages dedicated cloud infrastructure for your organization — there is nothing to set up.

* Infrastructure is provisioned automatically when your organization is created
* Apps are deployed with a single click from the Synthetiq console
* Each app gets its own subdomain at `https://{app-name}.synthetiq.link`
* Compute, networking, database, CDN, TLS certificates, and DNS are fully managed
* You don't need a cloud account or any infrastructure knowledge

Synthetiq Hosted is ideal for testing, prototyping, demos, and piloting the platform before setting up your own infrastructure.
