Thanks for writing this up Sarah! Some of this seems good to me, some not. I've put some remarks here but mostly I think we leave this and wait and see what other non Coiled affiliated people think.

page is intended as a hub for other relevant Dask projects (i.e. Dask Cloud Provider, Dask Kubernetes, and Dask Gateway) to link back to. This could be a sentence at the top of the docs index for these projects. Something like "Dask Gateway is one of many ways to deploy Dask; for an overview of other options see the Dask documentation

Such a page sounds a lot like https://docs.dask.org/en/stable/deploying.html to me. That already looks like a "hub" page that lists and links to the many options for deploying Dask.

It's a dense list right now, and we could probably do a lot to make it easier to navigate:

• cut down and summarize the current prose into ~1 paragraph
• organize the list of links by where you're deploying dask to (single machine, HPC, k8s, cloud, ad-hoc cluster
• perhaps also organize the list (via tabs at the top?) by who you're deploying dask for: "just me" vs "my team"? For example, dask-gateway likely isn't relevant to a single user; dask-cloudprovider is probably not a good solution for a team. Some options, including the commercial solutions, would be in both.

So basically, I like the idea of having a good "hub" page that makes it easy for users to navigate all the different options for deploying Dask. I just think the title of that page is probably "Deploy Dask Clusters", not "Dask Deployment Best Practices". Since "Deploy Dask Clusters" already exists, maybe we should be improving that page, not making a new one?

This looks good. I think there's more work we can do to the deployment page (I still find the text a bit long, and having the individual vs team split would be nice), but I think we should tackle that incrementally. This is already an improvement to the organization!

This looks great, thanks for the effort here.
