The cryogenic underground observatory for rare events (CUORE) is a cryogenic experiment searching for neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu \beta \beta$) of ${^{130}\hbox {Te}}$. The detector consists of an array of $988\,{\hbox {TeO}_{2}}$ crystals arranged in a compact cylindrical structure of 19 towers. We report the CUORE initial operations and optimization campaigns. We then present the CUORE results on $0\nu \beta \beta$ and $2\nu \beta \beta$ decay of ${^{130}\hbox {Te}}$ obtained from the analysis of the physics data acquired in 2017.
