### About Provider
-Provider encrypts the URL and metadata during publish and decrypts the URL when the dataset is downloaded or a compute job is started.
-It enables the access to data assets by streaming data (and never the URL).
-It performs checks on chain for buyer permissions and payments. It also Provides compute services (connects to C2D environment).
-It is a multichain component, meaning that with the proper configurations it can handle these tasks on multiple chains.
-The source code of Provider can be access from [here](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/provider).
+Provider encrypts the URL and metadata during publishing and decrypts the URL when the dataset is downloaded or a compute job is started. It enables access to the data assets by streaming data (and never the URL). It performs checks on-chain for buyer permissions and payments. It also provides compute services (connects to a C2D environment).
+
+Provider is a multichain component, meaning that it can handle these tasks on multiple chains with the proper configurations. The source code of Provider can be accessed from [here](https://github.com/oceanprotocol/provider).
+
+As mentioned in the Setup a Server document, all Ocean components can be deployed in two types of configurations: simple, based on Docker Engine and Docker Compose, and complex, based on Kubernetes with Docker Engine. In this document, we will present how to deploy Provider in each of these configurations.
+
+
+
+## Deploying Provider using Docker Engine and Docker Compose
+
+In this guide, we will deploy Provider for two chains: Goerli (Ethereum test network) and Mumbai (Polygon test network). Therefore, please note that in the following configuration files, "5" and "80001" are the chain IDs for Goerli and Mumbai respectively.
+
+
### Prerequisites
-* Docker and Docker compose are installed. Click [here](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/) to view guide on installing docker.
-* [Obtain an API key](../ocean-libraries/configuration.md#obtaining-api-key-for-ethereum-node-provider)
+* A server for hosting Ocean Marketplace. See [this guide](setup-server.md) for how to create a server;
+* Docker Compose and Docker Engine are installed and configured on the server. See [this guide](setup-server.md#install-docker-engine-and-docker-compose) for how to install these products.
+* The RPC URLs and API keys for each of the networks to which the Provider will be connected. See this guide for how to obtain the URL and the API key.
+* The private key which will be used by Provider to encrypt/decrypt URLs.
-### Create a working directory
+### Steps
-```
-mkdir Provider
-cd Provider
-```
+The steps to deploy the Provider using Docker Engine and Docker Compose are:
-### Create a \`.env\` file
+1. [Create the /etc/docker/compose/provider/docker-compose.yml file](deploying-provider.md#1.-create-the-etc-docker-compose-provider-docker-compose.yml-file)
+2. [Create the /etc/systemd/system/docker-compose@provider.service file](deploying-provider.md#2.-create-the-etc-systemd-system-docker-compose-provider.service-file)
+3. [Reload the systemd manager configuration](deploying-provider.md#3.-reload-the-systemd-manager-configuration)
+4. [Start the Provider service](deploying-provider.md#4.-start-the-provider-service)
+5. [Check the service's status](deploying-provider.md#5.-check-the-services-status)
+6. [Confirm the Provider is accessible](deploying-provider.md#6.-confirm-the-provider-is-accessible)
+7. [Check Provider service logs](deploying-provider.md#7.-check-provider-service-logs)
-Copy the below content into the \`.env\` file and edit the values as needed.
-{% code title=".env" %}
-```
-# Mandatory variables
-# Update the value to the appropriate tag from here: https://hub.docker.com/r/oceanprotocol/provider-py/tags
-PROVIDER_VERSION=latest
-PROVIDER_PRIVATE_KEY=
-NETWORK_URL=
-AQUARIUS_URL=
-```
-{% endcode %}
+#### 1. Create the /etc/docker/compose/provider/docker-compose.yml file
-### Create docker-compose file
+From a terminal console, create /etc/docker/compose/provider/docker-compose.yml file, the copy and paste the following content to it. Check the comments in the file and replace the fields with the specific values of your implementation.
-{% hint style="info" %}
-Set the value of OCEAN\_PROVIDER\_WORKERS to 2 or more to avoid a race condition when provider checks whether it should call a remote provider or not.
-{% endhint %}

+ExecStop=/usr/bin/env docker-compose -p $PROJECT stop
+
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
```
+
+
+
+#### 3. Reload the systemd manager configuration
+
+Run the following command to reload the systemd manager configuration
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+```
+
+Optionally, you can enable the services to start at boot, using the following command:
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl enable docker-compose@provider.service
+```
+
+
+
+#### 4. Start the Provider service
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl start docker-compose@provider.service
+```
+
+
+
+#### 5. Check the service's status
+
+Check the status of the service by running the following command. The output of the command should be similar to the one presented here.
+
+```bash
+$ sudo systemctl status docker-compose@provider.service
+● docker-compose@provider.service - provider service with docker compose
+ Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/docker-compose@provider.service; disabled; vendor preset: enabled)

+```
+
+
+
+#### 6. Confirm the Provider is accessible
+
+Once started, the Provider service is accessible on `localhost` port 8030/tcp. Run the following command to access the Provider. The output should be similar to the one displayed here.
+
+```bash
+$ curl localhost:8030
+{"chainIds":[5,80001],"providerAddresses":{"5":"0x00c6A0BC5cD0078d6Cd0b659E8061B404cfa5704","80001":"0x4256Df50c94D9a7e04610976cde01aED91eB531E"},"serviceEndpoints":{"computeDelete":["DELETE","/api/services/compute"],"computeEnvironments":["GET","/api/services/computeEnvironments"],"computeResult":["GET","/api/services/computeResult"],"computeStart":["POST","/api/services/compute"],"computeStatus":["GET","/api/services/compute"],"computeStop":["PUT","/api/services/compute"],"create_auth_token":["GET","/api/services/createAuthToken"],"decrypt":["POST","/api/services/decrypt"],"delete_auth_token":["DELETE","/api/services/deleteAuthToken"],"download":["GET","/api/services/download"],"encrypt":["POST","/api/services/encrypt"],"fileinfo":["POST","/api/services/fileinfo"],"initialize":["GET","/api/services/initialize"],"initializeCompute":["POST","/api/services/initializeCompute"],"nonce":["GET","/api/services/nonce"],"validateContainer":["POST","/api/services/validateContainer"]},"software":"Provider","version":"2.0.2"}
+```
+
+
+
+#### 7. Check Provider service logs
+
+If needed, use docker CLI to check provider service logs.
+
+First, identify the container id:
+
+```bash
+$ docker ps
+CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
+594415b13f8c oceanprotocol/provider-py:v2.0.2 "/ocean-provider/doc…" 12 minutes ago Up About a minute 0.0.0.0:8030->8030/tcp, :::8030->8030/tcp provider
+
+```
+
+Then, check the logs from the Provider's docker container
+
+```bash
+$ docker logs --follow provider

+## Deploying Provider using Kubernetes with Docker Engine
+
+
+
+In this example, we will run Provider as a Kubernetes deployment resource. We will deploy Provider for two chains: Goerli (Ethereum test network) and Mumbai (Polygon test network). Therefore, please note that in the following configuration files, "5" and "80001" are the chain IDs for Goerli and Mumbai respectively.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+* A server for hosting Ocean Marketplace. See [this guide](setup-server.md) for how to create a server;
+* Kubernetes with Docker Engine is installed and configured on the server. See [this chapter](setup-server.md#install-kubernetes-with-docker-engine) for information on installing Kubernetes.
+* The RPC URLs and API keys for each of the networks to which the Provider will be connected. See this guide for how to obtain the URL and the API key.
+* The private key which will be used by Provider to encrypt/decrypt URLs.
+* Aquarius is up and running
+
+### Steps
+
+The steps to deploy the Provider in Kubernetes are:
+
+1\.
+
+2\.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+1. Create an YAML file for Provider configuration.
+
+From a terminal window, create a YAML file (in our example the file is named provider-deploy.yaml) then copy and paste the following content. Check the comments in the file and replace the fields with the specific values of your implementation (RPC URLs, the private key etc.).
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: Deployment
+metadata:
+ labels:
+ app: provider
+ name: provider
+spec:

+ value:
+ - name: REQUEST_TIMEOUT
+ value: "10"
+ image: oceanprotocol/provider-py:latest => (check on https://hub.docker.com/r/oceanprotocol/provider-py for specific tag)
+ imagePullPolicy: Always
+ name: provider
+ ports:
+ - containerPort: 8030
+ protocol: TCP
+ resources:
+ limits:
+ cpu: 500m
+ memory: 700Mi
+ requests:
+ cpu: 500m
+ memory: 700Mi
+ terminationMessagePath: /dev/termination-log
+ terminationMessagePolicy: File
+ dnsPolicy: ClusterFirst
+ restartPolicy: Always
+ schedulerName: default-scheduler
+ terminationGracePeriodSeconds: 30
+```
+
+Tip: before deployment you can [validate](https://github.com/instrumenta/kubeval) the yaml file.
+
+
+
+2. Deploy the configuration
+
+Deploy the configuration in Kubernetes using the following commands.
+
+```bash
+kubectl config set-context --current --namespace ocean
+kubectl apply -f provider-deploy.yaml
+deployment.apps/provider created
+
+kubectl get pod -l app=provider
+NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
+provider-865cb8cf9d-r9xm4 1/1 Running 0 67s
+```
+
+
+
+3. Create a Kubernetes service
+
+The next step is to create a Kubernetes service (eg. ClusterIP, NodePort, Loadbalancer, ExternalName) for this deployment, depending on environment specifications. Follow [this link](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/service/) for details on how to create a Kubernetes service.
