-## **Use your own notebook server**
+## **Option 2: Use your own notebook server**
 
-Video walkthrough:
+### Quick installation
+We recommend you create a Python virtual environment ([Miniconda](https://conda.io/miniconda.html) preferred but [virtualenv](https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/) works too) and install the SDK in it.
+```sh
+# install just the base SDK
+pip install azureml-sdk
+
+# clone the sample repoistory
+git clone https://github.com/Azure/MachineLearningNotebooks.git
+
+# below steps are optional
+# install the base SDK and a Jupyter notebook server
+pip install azureml-sdk[notebooks]
+
+# install the data prep component
+pip install azureml-dataprep
+
+# install model explainability component
+pip install azureml-sdk[explain]
+
+# install automated ml components
+pip install azureml-sdk[automl]
+
+# install experimental features (not ready for production use)
+pip install azureml-sdk[contrib]
+```
+
+Note the _extras_ (the keywords inside the square brackets) can be combined. For example:
+```sh
+# install base SDK, Jupyter notebook and automated ml components
+pip install azureml-sdk[notebooks,automl]
+```
+
+### Full instructions
+[Install the Azure Machine Learning SDK](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/service/quickstart-create-workspace-with-python)
+
+Please make sure you start with the [Configuration](configuration.ipynb) notebook to create and connect to a workspace.
+
+
+### Video walkthrough:
 
 [![Get Started video](images/yt_cover.png)](https://youtu.be/VIsXeTuW3FU)
 
-1. Setup a Jupyter Notebook server and [install the Azure Machine Learning SDK](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/service/quickstart-create-workspace-with-python)
-1. Clone [this repository](https://aka.ms/aml-notebooks)
-1. You may need to install other packages for specific notebook
-    - For example, to run the Azure Machine Learning Data Prep notebooks, install the extra dataprep SDK:
-    ```bash
-     pip install azureml-dataprep
+
+## **Option 3: Use Docker**
+
+You need to have Docker engine installed locally and running. Open a command line window and type the following command. 
+
+__Note:__ We use version `1.0.10` below as an exmaple, but you can replace that with any available version number you like.
+
+```sh
+# clone the sample repoistory
+git clone https://github.com/Azure/MachineLearningNotebooks.git
+
+# change current directory to the folder 
+# where Dockerfile of the specific SDK version is located.
+cd MachineLearningNotebooks/Dockerfiles/1.0.10
+
+# build a Docker image with the a name (azuremlsdk for example) 
+# and a version number tag (1.0.10 for example).
+# this can take several minutes depending on your computer speed and network bandwidth.
+docker build . -t azuremlsdk:1.0.10
+
+# launch the built Docker container which also automatically starts
+# a Jupyter server instance listening on port 8887 of the host machine
+docker run -it -p 8887:8887 azuremlsdk:1.0.10
 ```
 
-1. Start your notebook server
-1. Follow the instructions in the [Configuration](configuration.ipynb) notebook to create and connect to a workspace
-1. Open one of the sample notebooks
+Now you can point your browser to http://localhost:8887. We recommend that you start from the `configuration.ipynb` notebook at the root directory.
+
+If you need additional Azure ML SDK components, you can either modify the Docker files before you build the Docker images to add additional steps, or install them through command line in the live container after you build the Docker image. For example:
+
+```sh
+# install dataprep components
+pip install azureml-dataprep
+
+# install the core SDK and automated ml components
+pip install azureml-sdk[automl]
+
+# install the core SDK and model explainability component
+pip install azureml-sdk[explain]
+
+# install the core SDK and experimental components
+pip install azureml-sdk[contrib]
+```

 - Every run (including the best run) is available as a pipeline, which you can tune further if needed. 
 - The model trained using Azure Databricks can be registered in Azure ML SDK workspace and then deployed to Azure managed compute (ACI or AKS) using the Azure Machine learning SDK.
 
-
-**Create Azure Databricks Cluster:**
-
-Select New Cluster and fill in following detail:
- - Cluster name: _yourclustername_
- - Databricks Runtime: Any **non ML** runtime (non ML 4.x, 5.x)
- - Python version: **3**
- - Workers: 2 or higher.  
-
-These settings are only for using Automated Machine Learning on Databricks.
- - Max. number of **concurrent iterations** in Automated ML settings is **<=** to the number of **worker nodes** in your Databricks cluster.
- - Worker node VM types: **Memory optimized VM** preferred. 
- - Uncheck _Enable Autoscaling_
-
-
-It will take few minutes to create the cluster. Please ensure that the cluster state is running before proceeding further.
-
-**Install Azure ML SDK without Automated ML capability on your Azure Databricks cluster**
-
-- Select Import library
-
-- Source: Upload Python Egg or PyPI
-
-- PyPi Name: **azureml-sdk[databricks]**
-
-**Install Azure ML with Automated ML SDK on your Azure Databricks cluster**
-
-- Select Import library
-
-- Source: Upload Python Egg or PyPI
-
-- PyPi Name: **azureml-sdk[automl_databricks]**
-
-**For installation with or without Automated ML**
-
-- Click Install Library
-
-- Do not select _Attach automatically to all clusters_. In case you selected this earlier, please go to your Home folder and deselect it.
-
-- Select the check box _Attach_ next to your cluster name
-
-(More details on how to attach and detach libs are here - [https://docs.databricks.com/user-guide/libraries.html#attach-a-library-to-a-cluster](https://docs.databricks.com/user-guide/libraries.html#attach-a-library-to-a-cluster) )
-
-- Ensure that there are no errors until Status changes to _Attached_. It may take a couple of minutes.
-
-**Note** - If you have an old SDK version, please deselect it from cluster’s installed libs > move to trash. Install the new SDK verdion and restart the cluster. If there is an issue after this, please detach and reattach your cluster.
+Please follow our [Azure doc](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/service/how-to-configure-environment#azure-databricks) to install the sdk in your Azure Databricks cluster before trying any of the sample notebooks.
 
 **Single file** - 
 The following archive contains all the sample notebooks. You can the run notebooks after importing [DBC](Databricks_AMLSDK_1-4_6.dbc) in your Databricks workspace instead of downloading individually.

 ## Azure Machine Learning service Tutorial
 
-Complete these tutorials to learn how to train and deploy models using Azure Machine Learning services and Python SDK. These Notebooks accompany the [tutorial articles starting here]([https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/service/tutorial-train-models-with-aml]).
+Complete these tutorials to learn how to train and deploy models using Azure Machine Learning services and Python SDK. These Notebooks accompany the
+two sets of tutorial articles for:
+
+ * [Image classification using MNIST dataset](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/service/tutorial-train-models-with-aml)
+ * [Regression using NYC Taxi dataset](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/service/tutorial-data-prep)
 
 As a pre-requisite, run the [configuration Notebook](../configuration.ipynb) notebook first to set up your Azure ML Workspace. Then, run the notebooks in following recommended order.
 
- * [Tutorial #1](img-classification-part1-training.ipynb): Train an image classification model with Azure Machine Learning
- * [Tutorial #2](img-classification-part2-deploy.ipynb):  Deploy an image classification model from first tutorial in Azure Container Instance (ACI)
- * [Tutorial #3](regression-part1-data-prep.ipynb): Use data preparation.
+### Image classification
+
+ * [Part 1](img-classification-part1-training.ipynb): Train an image classification model with Azure Machine Learning.
+ * [Part 2](img-classification-part2-deploy.ipynb): Deploy an image classification model from first tutorial in Azure Container Instance (ACI).
+
+ ### Regression
+ * [Part 1](regression-part1-data-prep.ipynb): Prepare the data using Azure Machine Learning Data Prep SDK. 
+ * [Part 2](regression-part2-automated-ml.ipynb): Train a model using Automated Machine Learning.
 
  Also find quickstarts and how-tos on the [official documentation site for Azure Machine Learning service](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/machine-learning/service/).
