+title: Agnostic EDF Deployment
+weight: 2
+description: The implementation of EDF must be kubernetes provider agnostic
+---
+
+* Type: Proposal
+* Owner: Stephan Lo (stephan.lo@telekom.de)
+* Reviewers: EDF Architects
+* Status: Speculative, revision 0.1
+
+## Background
+
+EDF is running as a controlplane - or let's say an orchestration plane, correct wording is still to be defined - in a kubernetes cluster.
+Right now we have at least ArgoCD as controller of manifests which we provide as CNOE stacks of packages and standalone packages.
+
+## Proposal
+
+The implementation of EDF must be kubernetes provider agnostic. Thus each provider specific deployment dependency must be factored out into provider specific definitions or deployment procedures.
+
+## Local deployment
+
+This implies that EDF must always be deployable into a local cluster, whereby by 'local' we mean a cluster which is under the full control of the platform engineer, e.g. a kind cluster on their laptop.
