Complete the [Prerequisites](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/prerequisites)\n2. Install the [management service](#management_service)\n3. [Create user clusters](#user_clusters) to run your workloads\n\nBefore you begin\n----------------\n\nYou can learn about the components of GKE on AWS in\n[Architecture](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/concepts/architecture). There are additional\nconcept topics that explain how GKE on AWS handles\n[Authentication](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/concepts/authentication),\n[Security](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/concepts/security),\n[Storage](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/concepts/storage), as well as\n[others](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/concepts).\n\nManagement service\n------------------\n\nA [management service](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/concepts/architecture) creates, updates, and\ndeletes GKE on AWS clusters. You have the following options\nto install a management service:\n\n- [Install a management service](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/installing-management) into a dedicated AWS Virtual Private Cloud (VPC).\n- [Integrate with an existing VPC](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/integrating-existing-infrastructure).\n- Configure your management service to [use an HTTP proxy](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/using-a-proxy).\n\nUser clusters\n-------------\n\nAfter you install a management service, create your user clusters.\nChoose from one of the following options to create the user cluster:\n\n- [Create a user cluster](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/creating-user-cluster) with default parameters.\n- [Create a custom user cluster](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/creating-custom-user-cluster), for example if you want to add node pools with different machine types.\n- [Create a user cluster with workload identity](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/workload-identity-cluster) if you want to assign different AWS IAM roles to each workload.\n- If you want to view, monitor, debug, and manage workloads from Google Cloud console, set up your cluster to use Connect using the instructions in [Connecting to your cluster with Google Cloud console](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/connecting-to-a-cluster).\n\nWhat's next\n-----------\n\nAfter you have installed a management service and created user clusters,\nyou are ready to launch workloads. Try one of the following:\n\n- [Launch your first workload](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/quickstart) on\n GKE on AWS.\n\n- Configure and create an [Ingress](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/ingress) with\n Cloud Service Mesh.\n\n- Create an externally facing deployment using a\n [load balancer](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/loadbalancer) or an\n AWS [application load balancer](/kubernetes-engine/multi-cloud/docs/aws/previous-generation/how-to/loadbalancer-alb)."]]
