I would definately recommend that, especially for larger deployments. Although this might look old fashioned as the rest of the world is changing everything in containers. It makes (performance) debugging *a lot* easier as you can actually isolate things. Something which is way more difficult to achieve in servers where you have a complex workload going on ... I guess (no proof of that) that performance will be more consistent as well. Gr.
