| description: | A Deis application release combines a build with a config. |
A Deis release is a combination of a :ref:`Build` with a :ref:`Config`. Each :ref:`Application` is associated with one release at a time. Deis releases are numbered and new releases always increment by one (e.g. v1, v2, v3).
:ref:`Containers <container>` that host an application use these release versions to pull the correct code and configuration.
