Deploying an HCL Commerce Version 9.0.0.0 to 9.0.1.17 live environment with Docker Compose
Deploy an HCL Commerce live environment, on a different machine from the
authoring environment and define a search_repeater
and
search_slave
to communicate with the search master on the authoring
environment.
The search_repeater needs to add the authoring host’s IP address to extra_hosts, so the repeater can discover the location of the search_master.
