The DevOps 2.1 Toolkit: Docker Swarm

By: Viktor Farcic

Overview of this book

Viktor Farcic's latest book, The DevOps 2.1 Toolkit: Docker Swarm, takes you deeper into one of the major subjects of his international best seller, The DevOps 2.0 Toolkit, and shows you how to successfully integrate Docker Swarm into your DevOps toolset. Viktor shares with you his expert knowledge in all aspects of building, testing, deploying, and monitoring services inside Docker Swarm clusters. You'll go through all the tools required for running a cluster. You'll travel through the whole process with clusters running locally on a laptop. Once you're confident with that outcome, Viktor shows you how to translate your experience to different hosting providers like AWS, Azure, and DigitalOcean. Viktor has updated his DevOps 2.0 framework in this book to use the latest and greatest features and techniques introduced in Docker. We'll go through many practices and even more tools. While there will be a lot of theory, this is a hands-on book. You won't be able to complete it by reading it on the metro on your way to work. You'll have to read this book while in front of the computer and get your hands dirty.

Adding REX-Ray to packer and terraform


We already went through REX-Ray manual setup so it should be relatively easy to add it to Packer and Terraform configurations. We'll add to Packer the static parts that do not depend on runtime resources and the rest to Terraform. What that means is that Packer will create AMIs with REX-Ray installed and Terraform will create its configuration and start the service.

Let's take a look at the terraform/aws-full/packer-ubuntu-docker-rexray.json (https://github.com/vfarcic/cloud-provisioning/blob/master/terraform/aws-full/packer-ubuntu-docker-rexray.json) file:

cat packer-ubuntu-docker-rexray.json

 

 

The only difference when compared with the terraform/aws-full/packer-ubuntu-docker.json (https://github.com/vfarcic/cloud-provisioning/blob/master/terraform/aws-full/packer-ubuntu-docker.json) config we used before is an additional command in the shell provisioner:

"provisioners": [{
  "type": "shell",
  "inline": [
   ...
   "curl -sSL https://dl.bintray.com/emccode...
