Summary

In this chapter, we introduced the tool docker-compose. This tool is mostly used to run and scale multi-service applications on a single Docker host. Typically, developers and CI servers work with single hosts and those two are the main users of Docker Compose. The tool is using YAML files as input that contain the description of the application in a declarative way.

The tool can also be used to build and push images among many other helpful tasks. The code accompanying this chapter can be found in labs/ch08.

In the next chapter, we are going to introduce orchestrators. An orchestrator is an infrastructure software that is used to run and manage containerized applications in a cluster and it makes sure that these applications are in their desired state at all the time.

Beginning DevOps with Docker

Beginning DevOps with Docker

Making sure that your application runs across different systems as intended is quickly becoming a standard development requirement. With Docker, you can ensure that what you build will behave the way you expect it to, regardless of where it's deployed. By guiding you through Docker from start to finish (from installation, to the Docker Registry, all the way through to working with Docker Swarms), we'll equip you with the skills you need to migrate your workflow to Docker with complete confidence.
