Thank you for posting the response ! I do need to rethink my strategy now. Even 
though I need to solve legacy problems in a short term , I agree that it does 
not become a requirement :)

So for moving data between containers , what options can I explore ? And is 
there instruction to use side containers ? I was not able to find much 
documentation.

Regards,
Qiang
