Potential Setup

Text

Common Docker commands

Docker tools

Docker Machine

Machine lets you create Docker hosts on your computer, on cloud providers, and inside your own data center. It creates servers, installs Docker on them, then configures the Docker client to talk to them.

Docker tools

Docker Compose

Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container applications with Docker. With Compose, you define a multi-container application in a single file, then spin your application up in a single command which does everything that needs to be done to get it running.

Docker tools

Docker Swarm

Docker Swarm is native clustering for Docker. It allows you create and access to a pool of Docker hosts using the full suite of Docker tools. Because Docker Swarm serves the standard Docker API, any tool that already communicates with a Docker daemon can use Swarm to transparently scale to multiple hosts.

DockerCon 2015

Open Container Platform

Docker 1.7

Introduction of Experimental releases:

docker.com/experimental

Docker 1.7

Plugins:

"Alongside networking, we’ve got another big feature in the experimental release of Engine. We’re adding a plugin system for Engine, the first two available are for networking and volumes. This gives you the flexibility to back them with any third-party system."
