+This document describes how to install some of the Non-RT RIC components, their dependencies and required system resources.
Software Installation and Deployment
------------------------------------
+Install with Helm in Kubernetes
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+The easiest and preferred way to install NONRTRIC functions is using Kubernetes, with installation instructions provided in Helm Charts.
+Full details of how to install NONRTRIC functions are provided in `Deploy NONRTRIC in Kubernetes <nonrtricwikik8s_>`_.
+
+Helm charts and an example recipe are provided in the `it/dep repo <https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/admin/repos/it/dep>`_,
+under "nonrtric". By modifying the variables named "installXXX" in the beginning of the example recipe file, which
+components that will be installed can be controlled. Then the components can be installed and started by running the
+following command:
+
+ .. code-block:: bash
+
+ bin/deploy-nonrtric -f nonrtric/RECIPE_EXAMPLE/example_recipe.yaml
+
Install with Docker
+++++++++++++++++++
-Docker compose files are provided, in the "docker-compose" folder, to install the components. Run the following
+Some NONRTRIC functions, and simpler usecases can be install directly using Docker.
+Full details of how to use Docker for NONRTRIC functions are provided in `Deploy NONRTRIC in Docker <nonrtricwikidocker_>`_.
+
+Install with Docker Compose
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Some older docker compose files are provided, in the "docker-compose" folder, to install the components. Run the following
command to start the components:
.. code-block:: bash
-f policy-service/docker-compose.yaml
-f ics/docker-compose.yaml
-Install with Helm

-under "nonrtric". By modifying the variables named "installXXX" in the beginning of the example recipe file, which

- bin/deploy-nonrtric -f nonrtric/RECIPE_EXAMPLE/example_recipe.yaml
+The example above is just an example to start some of the components.
+For more information on running and configuring the functions can be found in the README file in the "`docker-compose <https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/gitweb?p=nonrtric.git;a=tree;f=docker-compose>`_" folder, and on the `wiki page <https://wiki.o-ran-sc.org/display/RICNR/Release+E+-+Run+in+Docker>`_
