## Multi-host networking
When deploying a Compose application to a Swarm cluster, you can make use of the built-in `overlay` driver to enable multi-host communication between containers with no changes to application code. Consult the [Getting started with multi-host networking](/engine/userguide/networking/get-started-overlay.md) to see how to set up the overlay driver, and then specify `driver: overlay` in your networking config (see the sections below for how to do this).
