Overview of this book

Imagine creating and testing Java EE applications on Apache Tomcat Server or Wildfly Application server in minutes along with deploying and managing Java applications swiftly. Sounds too good to be true? But you have a reason to cheer as such scenarios are only possible by leveraging Docker and Kubernetes. This book will start by introducing Docker and delve deep into its networking and persistent storage concepts. You will then proceed to learn how to refactor monolith application into separate services by building an application and then packaging it into Docker containers. Next, you will create an image containing Java Enterprise Application and later run it using Docker. Moving on, the book will focus on Kubernetes and its features and you will learn to deploy a Java application to Kubernetes using Maven and monitor a Java application in production. By the end of the book, you will get hands-on with some more advanced topics to further extend your knowledge about Docker and Kubernetes.

We are at the end of our Docker and Kubernetes journey. After reading this book, you should already know how Kubernetes compliments Docker. You may think of them as of different layers of your software stack; Docker sits below, serving single containers, while Kubernetes orchestrates and manages them in a cluster. Docker becomes more and more popular and a lot of people use it during the development or production deployments. Just to name a few big ones, it is used by PayPal, General Electric, Groupon, Spotify, and Uber. It's mature enough to be run on production and I hope you will use it too to deploy and run your Java applications with success.

To further extend your knowledge about Docker and Kubernetes, there's plenty of information. The trick is to find the valuable information. In this chapter, I will present the most useful if you want to further...
