Mastering Docker - Third Edition

Overview of this book

Docker has been a game-changer when it comes to how modern applications are deployed and created. It has now grown into a key driver of innovation beyond system administration, with an impact on the world of web development. But how can you make sure you're keeping up with the innovations it's driving, or be sure you're using it to its full potential? Mastering Docker shows you how; this book not only demonstrates how to use Docker more effectively, but also helps you rethink and reimagine what's possible with it. You will cover concepts such as building, managing, and storing images, along with best practices to make you confident, before delving more into Docker security. You'll find everything related to extending and integrating Docker in new and innovative ways. Docker Compose, Docker Swarm, and Kubernetes will help you take control of your containers in an efficient manner. By the end of the book, you will have a broad, yet detailed, sense of what's possible with Docker, and how seamlessly it fits in with a range of other platforms and tools.

Technical requirements

In this chapter, we will continue to use our local Docker installation. As before, the screenshots in this chapter will be from my preferred operating system, macOS, but the Docker commands we will be running will work on all three of the operating systems on which we have installed Docker so far; however, some of the supporting commands, which will be few and far between, may be applicable only to macOS and Linux-based operating systems.
