 ### Running a Kubernetes Cluster for Development
 
-Before proceding further, it is imperative to understand that all Deis components, including the Deis PaaS ([deis/workflow][workflow]) run atop the [Kubernetes][k8s] container orchestration system.  Whether for production or development and testing, a healthy Kubernetes cluster (version 1.1 or greater) is the required starting point.
-
-All Deis components treat Kubernetes as the lowest common denominator and Deis components make no assumptions about:
-
-* Your hosts' underlying operating system(s).
-* The underlying physical or virtual infrastructure.  It makes no difference whether your hosts:
-  * Are physical machines (i.e. bare metal).
-  * Are virtual machines provisioned through a cloud provider.
-  * Are virtual machines running locally on your laptop.
-
-With Kubernetes used as a uniform interface between Deis components and the infrastructure below, it is also (largely) unimportant to Deis components _how_ your Kubernetes cluster was provisioned.  As such, the Deis team is also not strongly opinionated (at this time) about how best to provision a Kubernetes cluster.
-
-Any official options listed on Kubernetes own [Getting Started][k8s-getting-started] page should be sufficient.
-
-#### DigitalOcean
-
-In many cases, testing your changes to Deis components is accomplished most easily and economically on just a few Vagrant VMs - sometimes just one.  However, at times, if one wishes to conserve local resources, test changes at scale, or demonstrate changes to others, it is advisable to move these activities into a cloud environment. 
-
-[DigitalOcean][] is Deis' officially recommended provider for contributors wishing to extend their development and testing into the cloud.  See [Provision a new DO cluster](../installing-deis/digitalocean.md) for further details and then continue to follow the instructions below.

 ## Prerequisites
 Please make sure you enable the Daemon Sets api if you are installing a pre-1.2 version of kubernetes. As it is not turned on by default. You can learn more about how to do that [here](http://kubernetes.io/v1.1/docs/api.html#enabling-resources-in-the-extensions-group).
