# Using Docker to deploy PingCentral

Preconfigured Docker images of PingCentral are available in Docker containers on [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/pingidentity/pingcentral/tags). Each container provides a complete working instance of an application that is available to use immediately after it is deployed.

## Before you begin

Ensure that you have up-to-date tools and applications installed:

* [Docker CE for Windows](https://docs.docker.com/install/) or [Docker for macOS](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-mac/install/)

* .docker.com/compose/install///\[Docker Compose]

* [Git](https://git-scm.com/downloads)

To ensure you are using appropriate versions of Docker, see [System requirements and supported configurations](pingcentral_system_requirements.html).

## Steps

1. When you are ready, deploy PingCentral by completing one of these tasks:

   * [Register for the DevOps program](https://devops.pingidentity.com/how-to/devopsRegistration/) to obtain a DevOps user name and key.

   * Use an existing product license. For instructions, see [Use existing licenses](https://devops.pingidentity.com/how-to/existingLicense/).

2. Set up your server profile.

   For instructions, see the [Deployment](https://devops.pingidentity.com/how-to/containerAnatomy/) instructions on the [PingIdentity DevOps](https://devops.pingidentity.com/) site. The [PingCentral Docker image](https://devops.pingidentity.com/docker-images/pingcentral/) is also available on this site.
