What about VMs?

Docker Platform

• Engine - Container Mgmt

• Machine - Provisioning

• Swarm - Clustering

• Compose - Orchestration

• Registry - Distribution 

Django

• The web framework for perfectionists with deadlines

• Ridiculously fast

• Reassuringly secure

• Exceedingly scalable

Django

• Years of development

• Huge community

• Established conventions

• Battle tested

How do they fit together?

Quite nicely

• Docker containers are portable

• Django apps are modular

• Same with React components
