# Installing Trilio Components

Once the Trilio VM or the Cluster of Trilio VMs has been spun, the actual installation process can begin. This process contains of the following steps:

1. Install the Trilio dm-api service on the control plane
2. Install the Trilio datamover service on the compute plane
3. Install the Trilio Horizon plugin into the Horizon service

How these steps look in detail is depending on the Openstack distribution Trilio is installed in. Each supported Openstack distribution has its own deployment tools. Trilio is integrating into these deployment tools to provide a native integration from the beginning to the end.
