Help to set up a postgres database on a cloud vm, install docker to it, and link in the docker image

[mountainsunrise]

I have not used docker before, but I would like to use this docker image to clone the api and host it on a cloud vm. Someone said I should set up a postgres database on a cloud vm, install docker to it, and link in the image. Can anyone tell me if this is the correct way to go here, and how exactly I can do that? I see web services and postgres databases as options on cloud providers but not sure if I need one or both or how to proceed here. Also how much gb minimum plan do I need to run this to test it? The code is from https://github.com/0xProject/0x-api#database and the image is here on dockerhub https://hub.docker.com/r/0xorg/0x-api Thanks for any insights or help with getting this running!!

Hello mountainsunrise,

Here are documentation that you can use as reference for your concern on setting PostgreSQl in your instance, installing docker in the vm and linking docker image.
