Serves as a starting point to run a Minio cluster using Docker. The
file can be used as configuration for the docker-compose tool to start
4 Minio servers in distributed mode.

* Add a docker-compose.yml file to run 4 minio server instances in
  distributed mode

* Update Docker.md with command to use the file

+Let's consider that we need to run 4 minio servers inside different docker containers. The `docker-compose.yml` file in the root of the project sets this up using the [docker-compose](https://docs.docker.com/compose/) tool.
 
-### Prepare and start Minio docker instances
-```sh
-$ docker run -d --name=minio1 -e "MINIO_ACCESS_KEY=abcde" -e "MINIO_SECRET_KEY=secret00" -it -v/mnt/export/minio1:/export minio/minio

-### Get docker instances IP addresses:

-$ docker ps -q | xargs -n 1 docker inspect  --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}'
-172.17.0.2
-172.17.0.3
-172.17.0.4
-172.17.0.5

+From the root directory of the project, run:
 
-### Run all minio instances
-```sh
-$ docker exec -d minio1 minio server 172.17.0.2:/export 172.17.0.3:/export 172.17.0.4:/export 172.17.0.5:/export

+Each instance's minio web-server is accessible on the host at ports 9001 through 9004, so you may access the first one at http://localhost:9001/
