Docker and Kubernetes for Java Developers

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.

Container running modes

Docker has two container running modes, foreground and detached. Let's begin with the default one, the foreground mode.

Foreground

In the foreground mode, the console you are using to execute docker run will be attached to standard input, output, and error streams. This is the default; Docker will attach STDIN, STDOUT and STDERR streams to your shell console. If you need to, you can change this behavior and use the -a switch for the docker run command. As a parameter for the -a switch, you use the name of the stream you want to attach to the console. For example:

$ docker run -a stdin -a stdout -i -t centos /bin/bash  

The preceding command will attach both stdin and stdout streams to your console...
