+# Production Example
+
+This is an example of a good starting point for a production RabbitMQ deployment. It deploys a 3-node cluster with enough resources to handle reasonable traffic.
+
+Please keep in mind that:
+
+1. It may not be suitable for YOUR production deployment. Please go through the [Production Checklist](https://www.rabbitmq.com/production-checklist.html) to learn more about production deployment considerations.
+
+2. While it is important to correctly deploy RabbitMQ cluster for production deployment, it is even more important to correctly use RabbitMQ from your applications. [Production Checklist](https://www.rabbitmq.com/production-checklist.html) covers some of the common issues such as connection churn and polling cunsumers. Please also consider using [Quorum Queues](https://www.rabbitmq.com/quorum-queues.html) since they provide better data safety.
+
+You can deploy this example like this:
+
+```shell
+kubectl apply -f rabbitmq.yaml
+```
+
+Please keep in mind that you need a multi-zone Kubernetes cluster with 12 CPUs, 30Gi RAM, 1.5Ti disk space available as well as a `storageClass` called `ssd` to deploy this example as-is. Of course you can adjust these values to your environment if needed.
+
+An SSD storage class can be defined using [the example](ssd-gke.yaml) (which is GKE-specific and needs to be adjusted for other environments). Read more about the expected disk perforamnce [in Google Cloud Documentation](https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/performance#ssd_persistent_disk).
