 ## Installation
 
-Memgraph is a 64-bit Linux compatible database management system.
-For the purpose of Alpha testing Memgraph has been packed into
-Ubuntu 16.04 based [Docker](https://www.docker.com) image.
-Before proceeding with the installation, please install
-the Docker engine on your system.
-Instructions how to install Docker can be found
-[here](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation).
-Memgraph Docker image was built with Docker version `1.12`,
-so all Docker versions since version `1.12` should work.

 ### Import

 The most convenient way to start Memgraph is
 ```
-docker run -d -p 7687:7687 --name <memgraph_docker_container_name> <memgraph_docker_image_name>
+docker run -it -p 7687:7687 <memgraph_docker_image_name>
+```
+The `-it` option enables displaying Memgraph's logs inside the current shell.
+The `-p` option is used to specify the port which Memgraph will use to listen
+for requests.  Since the default Bolt protocol is `7687`, the straightforward
+option is to use that port.
+
+The recommended way to run Memgraph requires some additional configuration. A
+folder for database snapshots needs to be created and mounted on the host file
+system. It is also recommended to run the container in the background. On Linux
+system all of that can be executed as follows
+```
+# create snapshots folder on the host
+mkdir -p memgraph_snapshots
+# Docker expects full path to the created folder
+FULL_SNAPSHOTS_PATH=$PWD/memgraph_snapshots
+# run Memgraph
+docker run -d -p 7687:7687 -v ${FULL_SNAPSHOTS_PATH}:/memgraph/snapshots --name <memgraph_docker_container_name> <memgraph_docker_image_name>
 ```
 `-d` means that the container will be detached (run in the background mode).
-Because the default Bolt protocol port is `7687`, the straightforward option
-is to run Memgraph on that port.
+`-v` mounts snapshots folder inside the container on the host file system
+(useful for the recovery process).  With `--name` a user can set a custom name
+for the container (useful when the container has to be stopped).
+`<memgraph_docker_container_name>` could be any convenient name e.g.
+`memgraph_alpha`.
