# Working with on-premises instances for CodeDeploy

* An **on-premises instance is any physical device that is not an EC2 instance that can run the CodeDeploy agent and connect to public AWS** service endpoints.

* **Deploying a CodeDeploy application revision to an on-premises instance** involves two major steps:<br>
  \*
  1. **Configure each on-premises instance, register it with CodeDeploy, and then tag it**.
  2. **Deploy application revisions to the on-premises instance**.<br>

* If you **don't want an on-premises instance to be used in deployments** anymore, you can simply **remove the on-premises instance tags from the deployment groups**.
