 The `.spec.podTemplate.container` is a special attribute that you won't find in the default Kubernetes API. The reason is to avoid misconfiguration when users require to change the specific container where the workflow application is deployed.
 
+== Deployment Model
+
+By default, the {operator_name} deploys a `SonataFlow` instance in a regular Kubernetes Deployment object. Although it's possible to change this behavior and deploy the workflow instance as a link:{knative_serving_service_url}[Knative Serving Service] instead.

+After changing the deployment model to `knative`, the `SonataFlow` instance will be deployed as a Knative Serving Service.
+
+[IMPORTANT]
+====
+It's not possible to deploy a `SonataFlow` instance as a Knative Service in dev profile. In this profile, this attribute is ignored by the operator.
+====
+
+Note that not every use case leverage a Knative deployment. Long-running workflow instances, for example, that calls services that might take too long to respond, might not be an ideal deployment model. Opt to use Knative deployments for workflows that won't take too long to run. 
+
+The exception are workflows that have callback states. In this case, you must configure xref:cloud/operator/using-persistence.adoc[persistence]. This is required becase once the workflow waits for the event to resume the execution, Knative will kill the pod. Since the workflow has persistence, it will resume the execution once it receives the callback event.

 == Customization Exceptions
 
 Besides customizing the default container, you can add more `containers`, `initContainers`, or `volumes` to the pod. There are a few exceptions listed below:
