Learn Docker - Fundamentals of Docker 19.x: Build, test, ship, and run containers with Docker and Kubernetes, 2nd Edition

by Gabriel N. Schenker

Explore the core functionality of containerizing your applications and making them production-ready Containers enable you to package an application with all the components it needs, such as libraries and other dependencies, and ship it as one package. Docker containers have revolutionized the software supply chain in both small and large enterprises. Starting with an introduction to Docker fundamentals and setting up an environment to work with it, you'll delve into concepts such as Docker containers, Docker images, and Docker Compose. As you progress, the book will help you explore deployment, orchestration, networking, and security. Finally, you'll get to grips with Docker functionalities on public clouds such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and learn about Docker Enterprise Edition features. Additionally, you'll also discover the benefits of increased security with the use of containers. By the end of this Docker book, you'll be able to build, ship, and run a containerized, highly distributed application on Docker Swarm or Kubernetes, running on-premises or in the cloud. This book is for Linux professionals, system administrators, operations engineers, DevOps engineers, and developers or stakeholders who are interested in getting started with Docker from scratch. No prior experience with Docker containers is required. Users with a Linux system would be able to take full advantage of this book.

Nice book to get started on Docker. The exercises are easy to follow but the organisation of the chapters was a bit confusing.
