 ### Run Minio docker image
 
-Start docker with random keys, generated name, and ephemeral data:

+## Test Minio Docker Container
+Minio generates new access and secret keys each time you run this command. Container state is lost after you end this session. This mode is only intended for testing purpose.
 ```bash
 docker run -p 9000:9000 minio/minio server /export
 ```
 
-Start docker, ephemeral data with consistent name (minio1) and keys (examples shown are from AWS documentation and should be changed):

-```bash
-docker run -p 9000:9000 --name minio1 \

-Map export and configuration directories from host for persistence:
+## Run Minio Docker Container
+Minio container requires a persistent volume to store configuration and application data. Following command maps local persistent directories from the host OS to virtual config `~/.minio` and export `/export` directories.

+## Custom Access and Secret Keys
+To override Minio's auto-generated keys, you may pass secret and access keys explicitly as environment variables. Minio server also allows regular strings as access and secret keys.
