Docker by Demo

Docker allows for the isolation of applications into containers using features like namespaces and cgroups from Linux kernels to provide an API for packaging applications securely. Containers start almost instantly compared to virtual machines and share resources on a single kernel to improve performance and efficiency. Docker provides a standard way to package applications and their dependencies to provide consistent environments and ease of deployment.

What is Docker?

History of LXC (Linux


Containers)

cgroups

namespaces

Docker, a high level API

Why do we need Docker?

dependencies as
versioned code

isolation of processes

speed

debugging

pluggability

devops a process
enforcer

devops a tool between


rpm, deb and ansible,
chef, puppet

devops a process
enforcer

Whats wrong with VMs?

speed

new vm = minutes,
new container = seconds

vms = separate kernel,


containers = shared kernel
(can have different base
image)

duplicate services (cron,


syslog) need to be run for
each role

Installing Docker

only 64-bit supported

kernel 3.8

sudo yum install docker-io


sudo service docker start

Downloading (aka pulling)


Images

$ sudo docker pull ubuntu


$ sudo docker images

Launching Containers

Writing Your First


Dockerfile

# Dockerfile
FROM ubuntu
MAINTAINER James Turnbull "[email protected]"
RUN apt-get update
RUN apt-get install -y nginx
RUN echo 'Hi, I am in your container' \
>/usr/share/nginx/html/index.html
EXPOSE 80
ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/sbin/nginx"]
CMD ["-h"]

$ sudo docker build -t="user/nginx" .


$ sudo docker run -t -i user/nginx
$ sudo docker run -t -i user/nginx -g "daemon off;
$ sudo docker port <container>

Issues/Limitations/Misconc
eptions

lack of image inheritance


composing multiple images
(for example, ruby and
nginx)

yet another tool


dockerizing your app takes
time

not every app can be


dockerized

you still need configuration


management tools like
ansible or puppet

orchestration isnt avoided


either

Where do you go from


here?

the docker book, james


turnbull

try dockerizing one of your


applications
