+# Cloud Native GitLab **(FREE SELF)**
+
+[Cloud Native GitLab](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/build/CNG) provides cloud
+native containers to deploy GitLab. These containers may be deployed and managed
+via Helm using GitLab Charts or GitLab Operator on Kubernetes, OpenShift,
+and Kubernetes compatible container platforms:
+
+- [Helm charts](https://docs.gitlab.com/charts/): The cloud native Helm chart
+  installs GitLab and all of its components on Kubernetes. Use this method if
+  your infrastructure is built on Kubernetes and you're familiar with how it
+  works. The methods for management, observability, and some concepts are
+  different than traditional deployments.
+- [GitLab Operator](https://docs.gitlab.com/operator/): The GitLab Operator
+  provides an installation and management method for GitLab following the
+  [Kubernetes Operator pattern](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/extend-kubernetes/operator/).
+  You can also use the GitLab Operator to run GitLab in an
+  [OpenShift](../openshift_and_gitlab/index.md) environment.
+
+Here's an overview of how the containers are built:
