# Enterprise IT

The guide for IT departments has moved to the [Enterprise IT section of our wiki](https://github.com/MindWorkAI/AI-Studio/wiki/Enterprise-IT). There, it is organized by task, explains the deployment on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and offers complete configurations for typical scenarios.

This page stays so that existing links keep working. Each former section below points to its new place.

## Overview
See [Enterprise IT](https://github.com/MindWorkAI/AI-Studio/wiki/Enterprise-IT). Updates, including installations that never update themselves, are explained in [Managing Updates](https://github.com/MindWorkAI/AI-Studio/wiki/Managing-Updates).
