Docker Compose allows us to easily develop on our own laptops. DevOps teams will provide complete application stack files, docker-compose.yaml files, along with all the required components and configurations. Developers do not have to learn how all the components work. They can focus on the component they are developing because the rest of the components will run automatically thanks to docker-compose.
We can use Docker Compose on a Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline, building all the components at once.
Docker Compose helps us build all the application components at the development stage, but we can also use this tool to run all the components together. CI/CD orchestrators will execute docker-compose files at different stages.
With the described steps and variables, it is easy to imagine how to implement a pipeline starting at the development stages and ending with the application in production. We would...
