Hi @garcia

I would rather do a service for each one of the container. You can also configure more settings directly in the docker-compose.yml. Have you seen the following thread? [Multi host elasticsearch cluster using docker](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/multi-host-elasticsearch-cluster-using-docker/186561)

There is a link to further installation instructions on which my environment is based on.

Hope this helps.
