Docker Intro

Build, ship, and run any app, anywhere


Objectives
What are we going to cover

 What is Docker
 When to use Docker
 Practical exercise
Before
After
docker run first time
docker run a second time

 A new container is built


Before Docker
After Docker
Docker builds containers using ten major
system features:
Getting organized

 Without Docker, a
computer can end
up looking like a
junk drawer.
Running programs with Docker

 PS: Docker packaging system typically reduces the storage overhead.


Improving portability

 At present, Docker runs natively on Linux and comes with a single virtual
machine for OS X and Windows environments.
 On OS X and Windows, Docker uses a single, small virtual machine to run all
the containers.
 This new portability helps users in a few ways:
 It unlocks a whole world of software that was previously inaccessible.
 It’s now feasible to run the same software —exactly the same software— on any
system
Protecting your computer
Why is Docker important

 For a modicum of effort, Docker can save your business a lot of money
quickly:

1. Easier install – configure once, install any times & easier application removal
2. Significant push in the software community to adopt containers and Docker
3. Cross-platform and open way
4. Better adoption of some of the more advanced isolation features of operating
systems
What is Docker good for

 Replaces virtual machines


 Prototype software
 Packaging software
 Enabling a microservices architecture
 Modelling networks
 Enabling full-stack productivity when offline
 Reducing debugging overhead
 Documenting software dependencies and touchpoints
 Enabling continuous delivery
Where and when to use Docker
 Docker can only run applications that can run on a Linux operating system or
Windows applications on Windows Server
 Typical examples of programs running in a Docker container:
 Server applications:
 web servers
 mail servers
 Databases
 proxies, and the like.
 Desktop software:
 web browsers
 word processors
 email client, etc.

 Containers won’t help much with the security of programs that have to run with
full access to the machine.

using a Dockerfile
 How to tag a Docker image for
easy reference
 How to run your new Docker
image
Prerequisites

Options to create Docker Images
Writing a Dockerfile
Building
a Docker image
Add a meaningful tag name (optional)
Running a Docker container
Docker layering
docker history

 Docker history displays the intermediate layers of an image:


Common Docker Commands
Docker in the Larger Ecosystem

 Tools were developed to solve problems like:


 container orchestration
 high-availability clustering
 microservice life cycle management
 visibility
 Kubernetes is the most notable project in the ecosystem
 Powerful, but expensive learning curve and ongoing support effort
 Cloud providers come with their managing offers
