Deploying the Floating Server with Docker provides a flexible way to manage the server in isolated containers. 
Below are the steps to deploy the Floating Server using Docker.
Download the Docker Image:
Pull the Docker image from Docker Hub:
docker pull censedata/floating-server:latest
Create a Docker Network and Redis Volume:
To ensure smooth communication between Redis and the Floating Server, set up a Docker network and volume: 
docker network create fs-network
docker volume create redis
Run Redis in a Docker Container:
Run Redis to serve as the database for the Floating Server: 
docker run -d --net fs-network --name redis -p 6379:6379 -v redis:/data redis/redis-stack-server:latest
Create a Configuration File
Docker requires a config.yaml file for the server to operate. Place the config.yaml file in the directory where you will run the Docker container. For more details on configuration options, visit the Configuration File﻿ section.
Run the Floating Server in Docker
Launch the Floating Server by mounting the configuration file in the container: 
docker run -d --net fs-network --name floating-server -p 8080:8080 -v $PWD/config.yaml:/opt/server/config/config.yaml censedata/floating-server:latest
