What does it mean 1 worker / machine / topology

Hi,

I'm new to storm and after looking at this presentation
http://www.slideshare.net/ptgoetz/scaling-apache-storm-strata-hadoopworld-2014?qid=19b9de2b-175b-415e-94c8-7a537d8c2a9a&v=qf1&b=&from_search=2
I
was wondering what does it mean.

If my little knowledge of Storm is correct does it mean that for one
topology it's better to run on just one machine and that machine should
only have one worker? So, does it mean if i want to scale my storm up I
should scale vertically and not horizontally? Like I should not add more
nodes or something like that?

Thanks.
