  This topic describes how to deploy Cloud Foundry using `cf-deployment`. 
  
  Before performing the procedures in this topic, ensure you have prepared your environment and deployed a BOSH Director. For more information, see the [Prepare Your Environment](index.html#prepare) section of the <em>Deploying Cloud Foundry with cf-deployment</em> topic.
  
  ## <a id='clone'></a> Step 1: Clone cf-deployment
  
  Clone the `cf-deployment` repo:
  	<pre class="terminal">$ git clone http<span>s:</span>//github.com/cloudfoundry/cf-deployment.git</pre>
  
  This repo contains the canonical manifest for deploying Cloud Foundry, along with various ops files that specify operations to perform on the Cloud Foundry deployment manifest. These operations add additional functionality to your deployment.
  
  ## <a id='ops-files'></a>Step 2: Select Your Ops Files
  
  
negative.code: 
  Perform the following steps to determine your required variables and prepare them for the deploy:
  
  1. Review the information in the [Step 2: Select Your Ops Files](#ops-files) section and create a list of the variables required by the ops files you have selected.
  1. Determine the values for each of the variables. For example, the `aws_region` variable required by the `use-s3-blobstore.yml` ops file may have the value of `us-west-2`.
  1. Choose one of the following methods for providing the variables when you [deploy Cloud Foundry](#deploy) below:
  	* Provide the variables in a YAML file specified with the `--vars-file` flag during the deploy. This is the recommended method for configuring external persistence services.
