Using this docker in production #76

I am new to kafka and zoo keeper. If I run 3 instances of this docker, will they be related through a network interface. Basically is it equivalent to a cluster of kafka on top of a cluster of zoo keeper.

This is a good question that I wish the README described. I assume not, though, since zookeepers would have to somehow to be communicating.

This image shouldn't be used in production, it's generally bad practice for production to have multiple processes in a single container (like this has kafka and zookeeper). This image is mainly helpful for testint purposes and playing around
