+## Sock Shop on Applatix
+
+The following instructions will help you deploy and run the Sock Shop application on Applatix. 
+
Applatix makes it simple and consumable for enterprises to build, test and deploy containerized apps in public cloud at scale whether it is a legacy app or microservices based app. 
+
Applatix clusters leverage Docker containers and Kubernetes as foundation and are deployed in customer's cloud account- AWS or Google Compute Platform. Multiple Applatix clusters across multiple clouds can be centrally managed from the Applatix portal.  
+
You can review how to deploy sock shop in this [demo movie](https://vimeo.com/220878494).
+
+### Pre-requisites
+
+
+1. Have an [AWS Account](https://console.aws.amazon.com)
+2. Sign up for [Applatix](https://pages.applatix.com/acton/media/25513/contact-us-for-a-free-trial-of-applatix)
+3. Deploy one or more Applatix Kubernetes clusters in your AWS account
+
+### Deployment
+
+Applatix is driven by YAML DSL. You'll find the YAML deployment specs of all the Sock Shop microservices under **deploy/applatix** folder.

1. Fork the [https://github.com/microservices-demo/microservices-demo]() repo and move the **deploy/applatix** folder to **.applatix** folder under the root directory.
+2. Once Applatix cluster is installed, integrate it with the github repo and under **Catalog** menu item you will see a **sock shop** app.
+3. In Applatix, for the stateful microservices create EBS volumes with the names **sock-shop-order-db**, **sock-shop-user-db**, **sock-shop-cart-db**, **sock-shop-cart**,  **sock-shop-shipping**,  **sock-shop-order**.
+4. Deploy sock shop from the Applatix **Catalog**.
+
+It will take 1-2 minutes to deploy and you can see all the services in the web console.
+
+
