Also add instructions to use a standard cluster if preferred.

 This repository contains a Terraform template for running [Ray](https://www.ray.io/) on Google Kubernetes Engine.
 See the [Ray on GKE](/ray-on-gke/) directory to see additional guides and references.
 
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. GCP Project with following APIs enabled
+    - container.googleapis.com
+    - iap.googleapis.com (required when using authentication with Identity Aware Proxy)
+
+2. A functional GKE cluster.
+    - To create a new standard or autopilot cluster, follow the instructions in [`infrastructure/README.md`](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/ai-on-gke/blob/main/infrastructure/README.md)
+    - Alternatively, you can set the `create_cluster` variable to true in `workloads.tfvars` to provision a new GKE cluster. This will default to creating a GKE Autopilot cluster; if you want to provision a standard cluster you must also set `autopilot_cluster` to false.
+
+3. This module is configured to optionally use Identity Aware Proxy (IAP) to protect access to the Ray dashboard. It expects the brand & the OAuth consent configured in your org. You can check the details here: [OAuth consent screen](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials/consent)
+
+4. Preinstall the following on your computer:
+    * Terraform
+    * Gcloud CLI
+
 ## Installation
 
-Preinstall the following on your computer:
-* Terraform
-* Gcloud
+### Configure Inputs
 
-> **_NOTE:_** Terraform keeps state metadata in a local file called `terraform.tfstate`. Deleting the file may cause some resources to not be cleaned up correctly even if you delete the cluster. We suggest using `terraform destory` before reapplying/reinstalling.
+1. If needed, clone the repo
+```
+git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/ai-on-gke
+cd ai-on-gke/applications/ray
+```
 
-1. If needed, git clone https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/ai-on-gke
+2. Edit `workloads.tfvars` with your GCP settings.
+
+**Important Note:**
+If using this with the Jupyter module (`applications/jupyter/`), it is recommended to use the same k8s namespace
+for both i.e. set this to the same namespace as `applications/jupyter/workloads.tfvars`.

-2. `cd applications/ray`
+3. Ensure your gcloud application default credentials are in place. 
+```
+gcloud auth application-default login
+```
 
-3. Find the name and location of the GKE cluster you want to use.
-   Run `gcloud container clusters list --project=<your GCP project>` to see all the available clusters.
-   _Note: If you created the GKE cluster via the infrastructure repo, you can get the cluster info from `platform.tfvars`_
+4. Run `terraform init`
 
-4. Edit `workloads.tfvars` with your environment specific variables and configurations.
+5. Run `terraform apply --var-file=./workloads.tfvars`. 
 
-5. Run `terraform init && terraform apply --var-file workloads.tfvars`
