-# Application Development Platform **(FREE)**
+This document was moved to [another location](../../user/infrastructure/index.md).
-The GitLab Application Development Platform refers to the set of GitLab features used to create, configure, and manage
-a complete software development environment. It provides development, operations, and security teams with a robust feature set aimed at supporting best practices out of the box.
-
-## Overview
-
-The GitLab Application Development Platform aims to:
-
-- Reduce and even eliminate the time it takes for an Operations team
- to provide a full environment for software developers.
-- Get developers up and running fast so they can focus on writing
- great applications with a robust development feature set.
-- Provide best-of-breed security features so that applications developed
- with GitLab are not affected by vulnerabilities that may lead to security
- problems and unintended use.
-
-It is comprised of the following high-level elements:
-
-1. Compute
-1. Build, test, and deploy a wide range of applications
-1. Security
-1. Observability
-
-We believe the use of these common building blocks equate to big gains for teams of all sizes, resulting from the adoption
-of newer, more efficient, more profitable, and less error-prone techniques for shipping software applications.
-
-### Compute
-
-Because at GitLab we are [cloud-native first](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/#cloud-native-first) our
-Application Development Platform initially focuses on providing robust support for Kubernetes, with other platforms
-to follow. Teams can bring their own clusters and we additionally make it easy to create new infrastructure
-with various cloud providers.
-
-### Build, test, deploy
-
-In order to provide modern DevOps workflows, our Application Development Platform relies on
-[Auto DevOps](../autodevops/index.md) to provide those workflows. Auto DevOps works with
-any Kubernetes cluster; you're not limited to running on GitLab infrastructure. Additionally, Auto DevOps offers
-an incremental consumption path. Because it is [composable](../autodevops/customize.md#using-components-of-auto-devops),
-you can use as much or as little of the default pipeline as you'd like, and deeply customize without having to integrate a completely different platform.
-
-### Security
-
-The Application Development Platform helps you ensure that the applications you create are not affected by vulnerabilities
-that may lead to security problems and unintended use. This can be achieved by making use of the embedded security features of Auto DevOps,
-which inform security teams and developers if there is something to consider changing in their apps
-before it is too late to create a preventative fix. The following features are included:
-
-- [Auto SAST (Static Application Security Testing)](../autodevops/stages.md#auto-sast)
-- [Auto Dependency Scanning](../autodevops/stages.md#auto-dependency-scanning)
-- [Auto Container Scanning](../autodevops/stages.md#auto-container-scanning)
-- [Auto DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing)](../autodevops/stages.md#auto-dast)
-
-### Observability
-
-Performance is a critical aspect of the user experience, and ensuring your application is responsive and available is everyone's
-responsibility. The Application Development Platform integrates key performance analytics and feedback
-into GitLab, automatically. The following features are included:
-
-- [Auto Monitoring](../autodevops/stages.md#auto-monitoring)
