+# Milvus offline installation
+
+## Manually downloading Docker images
+
+Your Milvus installation may fail when images are not properly loaded from public Docker registries. To pull all images and save them into a directory that can be moved to the target host and loaded manually, perform the following procedure:
+
+1. Save Milvus manifest and Docker images
+
+If you install your Milvus with the **docker-compose.yml** file, use these command:
+
+- Download Milvus docker-compose.yaml
+```shell
+# Download Milvus standalone docker-compose.yaml
+wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/milvus-io/milvus/master/deployments/docker/standalone/docker-compose.yml -O docker-compose.yml
+```
+
+or
+
+```shell
+# Download Milvus cluster docker-compose.yaml
+wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/milvus-io/milvus/master/deployments/docker/cluster/docker-compose.yml -O docker-compose.yml
+```
+
+- Pull and save Docker images
+```shell
+# Pull and save Docker images
+pip3 install -r requirements.txt
+python3 save_image.py --manifest docker-compose.yml
+```
+
+If you install your Milvus with **Helm**, use these command: 
+- Update Helm repo
+```shell
+helm repo add milvus https://milvus-io.github.io/milvus-helm/
+helm repo update
+```
+
+- Get Kubernetes manifest of Milvus standalone
+```shell
+# Get Kubernetes manifest of Milvus standalone
+helm template my-release milvus/milvus > milvus_manifest.yaml
+```
+
+or
+
+```shell
+# Get Kubernetes manifest of Milvus cluster
+helm template --set cluster.enabled=true my-release milvus/milvus > milvus_manifest.yaml
+```
+
+- Pull and save Docker images
+```shell
+pip3 install -r requirements.txt
+python3 save_image.py --manifest milvus_manifest.yaml
+```
+
+The Docker images will be stored under **images** directory.
+
+2. Enter the following command to load the Docker images:
+
+```shell
+for image in $(find images/ -type f -name "*.tar.gz") ; do gunzip -c $image | docker load; done 
+```
+
+## Install Milvus
+
+- Install Milvus with Docker Compose
+
+```shell
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.yaml up -d
+```
+
+- Install Milvus on Kubernetes
+
+```shell
+kubectl apply -f milvus_manifest.yaml
+```
