-Use the following instructions if you prefer to use Docker instead of Docker Compose.
-
-### Starting a MySQL Server
-
-We use the default [MySQL Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/_/mysql).
-By default, the database is stored within the docker container and will thus be deleted when the container is removed.
-Instructions on using a persistent storage can be found at the end of this section.
-
-First, we define a docker network to allow our server to be reachable from other docker containers:
-
-```bash
-docker network create sql-network
-```
-
-Then, start the MySQL Server:
-
-```bash
-docker run -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=ok --name sqlserver --network sql-network -d mysql
-```
-
-That's all! You should be able to connect to the server now, though no database is present yet:
-
-```bash
-docker run -it --network sql-network --rm mysql mysql -hsqlserver -uroot -pok
-```
+To connect to the database use `./scripts/database-connect.sql`.
 
 ```bash
 mysql> SHOW DATABASES;

-For ease of use, you can also make use of the script in `scripts/run_mysql_server.sh`.
-
-#### Persistent Storage
+Now, you can visit the server from your browser at `localhost:8000/docs`.
 
-The data is persistent when simply stopping and restarting the server:
-
-```bash
-docker stop sqlserver
-docker start sqlserver
-```
-
-However, all data is lost when the container is deleted.
-To ensure data can persist even if the container is deleted, allow the Docker container to write to a directory on the
-host machine.
-To do that, mount a volume by adding `-v /ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/HOST/DIR:/var/lib/mysql` to the docker command that starts
-the server
-(it's also possible to create a docker
-volume ([docs](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/run/#mount-volume--v---read-only))).
-If you want to use a path within this repository directory, we recommend naming the directory `data` since then it will
-automatically be ignored by git.
-For more information, see "Where to Store Data" in the linked documentation.
-
-### Starting the REST API
-
-The repository provides a Dockerfile to run the REST API in a containerized environment.
-
-#### Using the Docker container
-
-First, build the docker image from the dockerfile:
-
-```bash
-docker build --tag ai4eu_server_demo:latest -f Dockerfile .
-```
-
-then create a container from that image, remember to forward the port and connect to the right 
-docker network (alternatively you can use the script at `scripts/run_apiserver.sh`)
-
-```bash
-docker run --network sql-network -it --rm -p 8000:8000 --name apiserver ai4eu_server_demo
-```
-
-At this point you should be able to visit the server from your browser at `localhost:8000/docs`.

-#### Editing Files Locally
-
-While developing the server it is often convenient to edit the files on the host machine.
-To avoid rebuilding the docker container each time you edit the files, you can mount the host files into the container.
-Mount your repository's `src` directory into the container's `/app` directory by adding `-v $(pwd)/src:/app`.
