### [Read this on the main serverless docs site](https://www.serverless.com/framework/docs/providers/) # Serverless Infrastructure Providers Under the hood, the Serverless Framework is deploying your code to a cloud provider like AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Apache OpenWhisk, Cloudflare Workers, or a Kubernetes-based solution like Kubeless. Click on your provider for detailed Serverless Framework CLI user guides and references.

## Connecting your provider To deploy functions, specify your provider in your service's `serverless.yml` file under the `provider` key and make sure your provider credentials are setup on your machine or CI/CD system. ```yml # serverless.yml service: my-service-name provider: name: aws ```
