 Maestro Server
 ===================================
 This module includes a Springboot app implementation of Maestro server.
+
+## Docker
+
+### Build
+
+Build the JAR file and Docker image via:
+
+```shell
+./gradlew bootJar
+docker build -t maestro-server:0.1 maestro-server
+```
+
+### Run
+
+Assuming you have CockroachDB already setup and running ([otherwise check these steps](#cockroachdb)):
+
+```shell
+docker run \
+  --name maestro \
+  --network host \
+  -p 8080:8080 \
+  -e CONDUCTOR_CONFIGS_JDBCURL=jdbc:postgresql://localhost:26257/maestro \
+  -e CONDUCTOR_CONFIGS_JDBCUSERNAME=root \
+  maestro-server:0.1
+```
+
+#### CockroachDB
+
+Spin up CockroachDB with `maestro` database via the below commands:
+
+```shell
+docker run -d -p 26257:26257 --name cockroachdb cockroachdb/cockroach:v24.1.0 start-single-node --insecure
+docker exec cockroachdb cockroach sql --insecure --execute 'CREATE DATABASE maestro;'
+```
