Automation Suite robots make it easy to run background automation without worrying about the necessary infrastructure. They provide you with complete freedom from provisioning, managing, maintaining, and scaling any underlying infrastructure. UiPath handles all the work behind the scenes so you don't have to deal with containers, virtual machines, or physical servers.

## Compatibility

You can use Automation Suite robots to run background, cross-platform automation projects that are published to Orchestrator as processes.
