 ## Introduction
 
+{{% alert color="info" %}}
+This document is about local deployments on [Minikube](https://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/minikube/). For the Mendix on Kubernetes solution, see [Mendix on Kubernetes](/developerportal/deploy/private-cloud/).

 This how-to takes you through the process of deploying a Docker image of your Mendix app to [Minikube](https://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/minikube/), a local version of [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/home/) which runs in a Windows container or virtual machine. Many of the operations you perform on Minikube are the same as those on a hosted environment and it provides a low-level entry to Kubernetes. For more information, see [Installing Kubernetes with Minikube](https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/learning-environment/minikube/) on the Kubernetes documentation site.
 
-Kubernetes is a standard container orchestration platform supported by Mendix. For details on supported version of Kubernetes see [Mendix System Requirements](/refguide/system-requirements/). When publishing to your cloud infrastructure, Mendix suggests you use [Mendix on Kubernetes](/developerportal/deploy/private-cloud/) to deploy Mendix apps to Kubernetes as this provides you with integration with the Mendix Portal and takes away much of the heavy lifting.

 ## Prerequisites
 
 To follow this how-to, you should have a basic knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes. For more information, see [Docker Overview](https://docs.docker.com/engine/docker-overview/) and [Kubernetes Basics](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tutorials/kubernetes-basics/). Although you do not need more knowledge to execute all the commands provided, some experience will help you to understand the how-to better.

+Before you start, here is some background information on the components needed to deploy a Mendix app with Minikube.
 
 A Mendix application needs, as a minimum, a database to run. In this example you provision a PostgreSQL database within the Kubernetes cluster. In production scenarios, the database is usually provided as a service by the cloud provider, like AWS RDS or Azure SQL. For supported databases see [Mendix System Requirements](/refguide/system-requirements/).
