Hi, I have 3 virtual machines, one will be use by logstash, another by kibana, and the third one, the more resourcefull one, will be use by elastic, I was thinking to install elastic on docker in this machine, to create 3 elastic docker nodes on the same machine, what do you think of this? anyone has experience with this configuration? ---

Hello @Incauto, Here an example of [docker-compose](https://gist.github.com/amrmostafazaki/d7af0e0dbae726108438c246fa8eb606) file but doesn't contain logstash instance but if you understand the mechanism of file, you can adjust it with you want. Thanks, ---
