+# Gruntwork Production Framework
+
+The Gruntwork Production Framework is our opinionated, step-by-step framework for achieving a world-class DevOps setup. At Gruntwork, we've had the privilege to work with software teams from tiny startups to massive Fortune 50 companies to some of the world's largest government agencies, and this framework captures the common patterns we've seen that actually worked.
+
+This document is a high-level summary of the Gruntwork Production Framework. We will post and link to the full version in the future.
+
+## The ingredients of success
+
+There are a core set of raw primitives your company will need to put in place to achieve a world-class DevOps setup. We consider these the ingredients of success:
+
+1. Service catalog
+1. Application catalog
+1. CI/CD pipeline
+1. Developer self-service
+
+### How Gruntwork helps
+
+The Gruntwork product is designed to help customers implement this framework. For more information, see [how it works](how-it-works).
+
+## Ingredient #1: Service catalog
+
+This is an overloaded term, so let's dive into the details of what we mean by a Service Catalog in this guide.

+# How it works
+
+## Overview
+
+There are two fundamental ways to engage Gruntwork:
+
+1. **Gruntwork builds your architecture.** We generate the [Reference Architecture](https://gruntwork.io/reference-architecture/) based on your needs, deploy into your AWS accounts, and give you 100% of the code. Since you have all the code, you can extend, enhance, and customize the environment exactly according to your needs. The deploy process takes about one day.
+2. **Build it yourself.** The Gruntwork IaC library empowers you to [construct your own bespoke architecture](/docs/guides/build-it-yourself/overview) in record time. By mix-and-matching our modules and services you can quickly define a custom architecture to suit your needs, all with the confidence of having world-class, battle-tested code running under the hood.
+
+## What we provide
+
+The Gruntwork product suite is designed to help you implement a world-class DevOps setup. It includes a combination of products, services, and support.
+
+### Gruntwork IaC Library
+
+A battle-tested, production-grade _catalog_ of infrastructure code that contains the core "building blocks" of infrastructure. It includes everything you’ll need to set up:
+
+- A Multi-account structure
+- An infrastrucutre CI/CD Pipeline
+- Networking and VPCs
+- App orchestration — ECS, EC2, Kubernetes, and more
+- Data storage — Aurora, Elasticache, RDS, and more
+- Best-practice security baselines
+- _and more…_
+
+### Gruntwork Compliance
+
+An optional _catalog extension_ that contains building blocks that implement various compliance standards. Today we support CIS compliance; SOC 2 is coming soon, and we plan on adding additional standards in the future.
+
+### Professional Services
+
+A team of experienced Gruntwork engineers who can help you:
+
+- **Learn Gruntwork.** Pair directly with Gruntwork engineers to understand how Gruntwork products work in depth.
+- **Customize Gruntwork.** Pay us to update our product to support the features you need to achieve your use case.
+
+### Support
+
+Gruntwork offers three levels of support:
+
+- **[Community support](/docs/guides/support#get-support).** Get help via a [Gruntwork Community Slack](https://gruntwork-community.slack.com/archives/CHH9Y3Z62) and our [Knowledge Base](https://github.com/gruntwork-io/knowledge-base/discussions).
+- **[Paid support](/docs/guides/support#paid-support-tiers).** Get help via email, a private Slack channel, or scheduled Zoom calls, with response times backed by SLAs.
+
+## What you provide
+
+Gruntwork products and services can help you quickly achieve world-class infrastrcuture. However, we aren’t a consulting company. To suceced, you (or your trusted DevOps consultant/contractor) must commit to learning how to leverage our products for your use cases, making any additional customizations, and deploying or migrating your apps and services.
+
+### Learn how to use our products
+
+To work effectively with our products, you’ll need to understand our opinionated stance on DevOps best practices and how to apply it for your purposes. You'll also need to learn how to use the Gruntwork products themselves. Our guides and support remain available to assist you in these endeavors.
+
+### Implement the “last mile”
+
+Gruntwork products strike a balance between opinionatedness and configurability. They’ll get you most of the way to your goal, but you may need to make some customizations to suit your use case. You may also need to adapt your apps and services to run in your new infrastructure. Our [Knowledge Base](https://github.com/gruntwork-io/knowledge-base/discussions) and [Community Slack Channel](https://gruntwork-community.slack.com/archives/CHH9Y3Z62) provide great resources to assist you in this effort.

+# Introduction to Gruntwork
+
+### What is Gruntwork?
+
+**Gruntwork is a "DevOps accelerator" designed to make it possible to achieve a world-class DevOps setup based completely on infrastructure-as-code in just a few days.**
+
+All Gruntwork products exist within a framework we’ve devised specifically to emphasize DevOps industry best-practices and maximize your team’s efficiency. In the [how it works](how-it-works) section, we’ll cover how Gruntwork can help your team implement your infrastructure using this framework.
+
+Gruntwork works best for teams building new infrastructure ("greenfield"), either from scratch or as part of a migration. However, it can also be used by teams with existing infrastructure ("brownfield") if they have sufficient DevOps experience.
+
+### Supported public clouds
+
+Gruntwork products focus on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Support for other public clouds such as GCP and Azure may be added in the future.
+
+### Gruntwork uses Terraform
+
+All Gruntwork products are built on and fully compatible with [open source Terraform](https://terraform.io). The one exception to this is the [Gruntwork Reference Architecture](https://gruntwork.io/reference-architecture/), which uses [Terragrunt](https://terragrunt.gruntwork.io/) (one of our open source tools) to implement an end-to-end architecture.
