Docker came out of dotCloud's PaaS, where it fulfills the needs of IT to develop and deploy web applications in a fast and scalable manner. This is needed to keep up with the ever-accelerating pace of using the web. Keeping everything running in our Docker container in production is no simple feat.
So far, we have learned various details to improve our Docker infrastructure. We learned how to build Docker Swarm clusters automatically. We learned about various systems such as monitoring, logging, and deployment to support our Docker application. We've improved our development and deployment workflow so that our applications are performant and resilient.
In this chapter, we will wrap up what you learned about optimizing Docker and illustrate how it relates to operating our web applications in production. It consists of the following topics:
- Performing...
