+the safest and most available mode proposed by Garage.
 
 We recommend first following the [quick start guide](../quick_start/index.md) in order
 to get familiar with Garage's command line and usage patterns.
 
+
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+To run a real-world deployment, make sure you the following conditions are met:
+
+- You have at least three machines with sufficient storage space available.
+
+- Each machine has a public IP address which is reachable by other machines.
+  Running behind a NAT is possible, but having several Garage nodes behind a single NAT
+  is slightly more involved as each will have to have a different RPC port number
+  (the local port number of a node must be the same as the port number exposed publicly
+  by the NAT).
+
+- Ideally, each machine should have a SSD available in addition to the HDD you are dedicating
+  to Garage. This will allow for faster access to metadata and has the potential
+  to drastically reduce Garage's response times.
+
+- This guide will assume you are using Docker containers to deploy Garage on each node. 
+  Garage can also be run independently, for instance as a [Systemd service](systemd.md).
+  You can also use an orchestrator such as Nomad or Kubernetes to automatically manage
+  Docker containers on a fleet of nodes.
+
+Before deploying Garage on your infrastructure, you must inventory your machines.
+For our example, we will suppose the following infrastructure with IPv6 connectivity:
+
+| Location | Name    | IP Address | Disk Space |
+|----------|---------|------------|------------|
+| Paris    | Mercury | fc00:1::1  | 1 To       |
+| Paris    | Venus   | fc00:1::2  | 2 To       |
+| London   | Earth   | fc00:B::1  | 2 To       |
+| Brussels | Mars    | fc00:F::1  | 1.5 To     |
