Hello,

> See the install docs at [discourse/docs/INSTALL.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md) which cover the advanced install. Basically you deploy multiple containers in the web role talking to a database container.

thanks for your feedback. I read the manual before, but some thinks are not clear to me, yet :-/

- If each cluster-node is running its own database - how are they supposed to be synched? Using Message Queuing, Postgres-Clustering or else?
- What is the reason for using Docker here? How does the App-environment interactv with my Host System? How is resonsible for patching requirements?

Thanks, yanosz
