Overview
Uplatz offers this comprehensive course on Docker: Build, Containerize, Deploy, and Scale Applications. It is a self-paced course with video lectures. You will be awarded Course Completion Certificate at the end of the course.
Docker is a containerization platform that enables developers to package applications and their dependencies into lightweight, portable containers. These containers can run consistently across various environments, from development to production, eliminating the "it works on my machine" issue by standardizing the application's environment.
Docker simplifies and accelerates development, deployment, and scaling by standardizing applications in isolated, portable containers, making it a powerful tool for modern DevOps practices.
How Docker Works
Docker uses a client-server architecture, where the Docker client communicates with the Docker daemon to build, run, and manage containers. Here’s a breakdown of Docker’s workflow:
Dockerfile: A Dockerfile is a script containing a series of commands to assemble a Docker image. The image includes the app code, dependencies, environment settings, and OS libraries required to run the application.
Images: Docker images are read-only templates based on the Dockerfile instructions. They serve as a blueprint for creating containers.
Containers: Containers are running instances of Docker images. Each container is isolated, with its own CPU, memory, and network resources, yet lightweight because they share the host OS kernel.
Docker Engine: This is the runtime that enables containerized applications to operate on different platforms, providing isolation and resource management.
Docker Registry: Registries like Docker Hub allow users to store and share Docker images, making it easy to deploy applications across environments.
Key Features of Docker
Containerization: Packages applications and dependencies into isolated containers, ensuring consistency across environments.
Portability: Docker containers can run on any machine with Docker installed, regardless of underlying OS differences.
Version Control and Image Reusability: Docker images are versioned, enabling easy rollback and reusability across projects.
Efficient Resource Usage: Containers are lightweight and start quickly because they share the host OS kernel, making them more efficient than virtual machines.
Scalability and Orchestration Support: Docker works well with orchestration tools like Kubernetes, enabling the deployment of containerized apps at scale.
Isolation: Each container runs independently with its own isolated environment, which increases security and reduces dependencies conflicts.
CI/CD Integration: Docker integrates smoothly with continuous integration and deployment pipelines, automating testing and deployment for faster delivery.
