+## Run Keptn analysis for a deployment not on Kubernetes
+
+The Keptn analyses feature
+analyzes Service Level Objectives (SLOs)
+based on Service Level Indicators (SLIs).
+It can apply weights to reach a composite score
+about the health of the deployment,
+similar to what the metrics evaluations of the
+Keptn v1 quality gates feature provided.
+The data used can come from multiple instances
+of multiple data providers
+(such as Prometheus, Dynatrace, and DataDog).
+
+A Keptn analysis can be run for any application running anywhere
+as long Keptn can access a monitoring provider endpoint
+that serves metrics for the application.
+You can point to multiple instances of the supported monitoring providers
+(Prometheus, Dynatrace, Datadog, and dql)
+so the application itself can run anywhere.
+
+To implement a Keptn analysis for your deployment:
+
+- Create a `KeptnMetricProvider` resource
+  for each data source to be used for your analysis.
+  This specifies the URL for the data source,
+  assigns a `name` that Keptn uses to reference that provider,
+  and can define a secret for the data provider if necessary.
+
+- Create `AnalysisValueTemplate` resources for each SLI
+  and an `AnalysisDefinition` resource that contains all SLOs
+  to be used in your analysis
+
+- Create and apply an `Analysis` resource
+  to define each specific analysis you want to run.
+
+See the
+[Analysis](../guides/slo.md)
+guide and the
+[Analyzing Application Performance with Keptn](https://keptn.sh/latest/blog/2023/12/19/analyzing-application-performance-with-keptn/)
+blog
+for more details and examples for the Keptn analysis feature.
