 ## Run Distributed MinIO on Docker
-Distributed MinIO can be deployed via [Docker Compose](https://docs.min.io/docs/deploy-minio-on-docker-compose) or [Swarm mode](https://docs.min.io/docs/deploy-minio-on-docker-swarm). The major difference between these two being, Docker Compose creates a single host, multi-container deployment, while Swarm mode creates a multi-host, multi-container deployment.

-This means Docker Compose lets you quickly get started with Distributed MinIO on your computer - ideal for development, testing, staging environments. While deploying Distributed MinIO on Swarm offers a more robust, production level deployment.
