# Deploy models

In DataRobot, the way you deploy a model to production depends on the type of model you start with and the prediction environment where the model will be used. The following sections describe how to add deployments for different types of artifacts, including models built in DataRobot, custom inference models, and remote models.

Deploy external models
How to deploy external (remote) models from the Model Registry or by uploading training data in the deployment inventory.
MLOps agents
How to monitor and manage deployments running in an external environment outside of DataRobot MLOps.
Configure a deployment
How to complete deployments by configuring inference options.
Add prediction data post-deployment
How to add historical prediction data to existing deployments.
