 Note: This redis-master is *not* highly available.  Making it highly available would be a very interesting, but intricate exercise - redis doesn't actually support multi-master deployments at the time of this writing, so high availability would be a somewhat tricky thing implement, and might involve periodic serialization to disk, and so on.
 
 Use (or just create) the file `examples/guestbook/redis-master-controller.json` which describes a single pod running a redis key-value server in a container:
-Note that, although the redis server runs just with a single replica, we use replication controller to enforce that exactly one pod keeps running (e.g. in a event of node going down, the replication controller will ensure that the redis master gets restarted on a healthy node).
