Overview of this book

No doubt Docker Containers are the future of highly-scalable software systems and have cost and runtime efficient supporting infrastructure. But learning it might look complex as it comes with many technicalities. This is where The Docker Workshop will help you. Through this workshop, you’ll quickly learn how to work with containers and Docker with the help of practical activities.? The workshop starts with Docker containers, enabling you to understand how it works. You’ll run third party Docker images and also create your own images using Dockerfiles and multi-stage Dockerfiles. Next, you’ll create environments for Docker images, and expedite your deployment and testing process with Continuous Integration. Moving ahead, you’ll tap into interesting topics and learn how to implement production-ready environments using Docker Swarm. You’ll also apply best practices to secure Docker images and to ensure that production environments are running at maximum capacity. Towards the end, you’ll gather skills to successfully move Docker from development to testing, and then into production. While doing so, you’ll learn how to troubleshoot issues, clear up resource bottlenecks and optimize the performance of services. By the end of this workshop, you’ll be able to utilize Docker containers in real-world use cases.

Preface

9. Docker Swarm

Overview

In this chapter, you will work with Docker Swarm from the command line to manage running nodes, deploy services, and perform rolling updates on your services when needed. You will learn how to troubleshoot your Swarm nodes and deploy entire stacks using your existing Docker Compose files, as well as learning how you can use Swarm to manage your service configuration and secrets. The final part of this chapter will provide you with the knowledge you need to get started using Swarmpit, which is a web-based interface for running and managing your Docker Swarm services and clusters.
