Setup rabbitmq deployment with two replicas

I need to setup rabbitmq deployment inside a kubernetes cluster.

The rabbitmq is not accessible from outside so I just need a clusterIP service rather than a load balancer.

I went through the documentation for Statefulset. But It talks about setting up a rabbitmq cluster i.e one master and two worker nodes.

Why can't I just have a rabbitmq deployment with two replicas and persistent volume?

This is my current config file for deployment.

apiVersion: apps/v1  kind: Deployment  metadata:    name: rabbitmq-depl  spec:    replicas: 2    selector:      matchLabels:        app: rabbitmq    template:      metadata:        labels:          app: rabbitmq      spec:        containers:          - name: rabbitmq            image: rabbitmq  ---  apiVersion: v1  kind: Service  metadata:    name: rabbitmq-srv  spec:    selector:      app: rabbitmq    ports:      - name: rabbitmq        protocol: TCP        port: 80        targetPort: 5672    

What is the right way to integrate rabbitmq inside a k8s cluster?

How can I use statefulset for persistent data of rabbitmq?

What is the difference between setting up cluster and using just deployment in case of rabbitmq?
