+# Deploy MCCE cache node to a Linux host machine
+
+This article describes how to deploy Microsoft Connected Cache for Enterprise and Education (MCCE) caching software to a Linux host machine.
+
+Before deploying MCCE to a Linux host machine, ensure that the host machine meets all [requirements](mcc-enterprise-prerequisites.md), and that you have [created and configured your MCC Azure resource](https://aka.ms/mccent-create-resources).
+
+## Steps to deploy MCCE cache node to Linux
+
+1. Within the Azure portal, navigate to the "Provisioning" tab of your cache node and copy the provisioning command.
+1. Download the provisioning package using the button at the top of the Cache Node Configuration page and extract the package onto the host machine.
+1. Open a command line window *as administrator* on the host machine, then change directory to the extracted provisioning package.
+1. Set access permissions to allow the `provisionmcc.sh` script within the provisioning package directory to execute.
+1. Run the provisioning command on the host machine.
