# Welcome to Deis Workflow

Deis (pronounced DAY-iss) Workflow is an open source Platform as a Service (PaaS) that adds a developer-friendly layer to any Kubernetes cluster, making it easy to deploy and manage applications on your own servers.  It includes capabilities for building and deploying from source via git push, configuring your applications, managing and rolling back releases, managing application domain names and SSL certificates, edge routing, application log aggregation, and managing access to application resources.  All of this is exposed through a simple REST API and command line interface.
