 A Day in the Life of a .NET Full Stack Developer

Joe has been asked to implement his knowledge on developing

ASP.NET applications and Docker containerization.

First Bank wants to use Docker to deploy all of their web applications.
Joe's manager has asked him to build a simple two-page web interface
in ASP.NET and set up a docker container to deploy the application on
it.

In this lesson, we will learn how to solve this real-world scenario to

help Joe complete his task effectively and quickly.

Various Docker Commands
 Docker

Docker is a containerization platform that packages an application and all its dependencies in the form of
containers.

Features of Docker:

Ensures seamless working of the

application

Wraps the application in a complete file

system

Allows an application to be
independent of its environment
 Applications of Docker

Code pipeline management

Application Rapid
isolation deployment

Simplification of
configuration Multi-tenancy
 Docker Container

A container bundles an application along with all its dependencies.

Features of Docker Containers:

They share the same kernel with the host

operating system

They are not tied to any specific

infrastructure

They run as isolated processes on the

host operating system

Introduction to Docker Swarm
 Docker Swarm

Docker Swarm is the scheduling and clustering tool for Docker containers.

Containers

Swarm

Hosts
 Functions of Docker Swarm

Docker Swarm is controlled through Swarm Manager.

Orchestrates and schedules containers

Swarm
Manager

Allows creation of a primary manager instance

and multiple replica instances

Swarm optimizes resources by automatically scheduling container workloads to run on

the most appropriate host and assigning containers to the underlying nodes.
Importance and Applications
 Importance of Docker Swarm

Docker Swarm allows deployment of manager and worker nodes at runtime.

With the help of Docker Swarm:

A cluster of Docker nodes can be established and managed as a single virtual system.

Container iterations can be added or subtracted as per computing demands.

Applications of Docker Swarm

Scaling beyond one host

Failure tolerance and high availability

Load balancing

Automatic assignment of services

Docker Services
 Docker Services

A Docker Service is created to deploy an image of an application when the Docker Engine is in Swarm
mode. A service is an image of a microservice of the the application.

A database

Examples of Docker services: An HTTP server

Any executable program to be run in a

distributed environment
 Creating a Docker Service

While creating a Docker Service, the container image that is to be used and the commands to be executed
inside the running containers have to be specified.

Define the following while creating a Service:

Port where the service is available outside the Overlay network to connect other Services in
Swarm the Swarm

CPU and memory limits, and reservations Number of replicas to be run

 Types of Docker Service Deployments

Docker Service can be deployed in two ways:

Replicated The number of replica tasks for the Swarm manager to

Services schedule on the available nodes are specified.

Global One task is assigned to every node by the swarm

Services manager.

Introduction to Docker Compose
 Docker Compose

Docker Compose is used to define and run multi-container docker applications as a single service.
Compose works on production, staging, development, testing, and continuous integration workflow
environments.

It Is a YAML file that contains details required to set up the Docker

application

It can be used to create, host separate containers, and establish

communication between containers

Runs on MacOS, Windows, and 64-bit Linux

 What Is Docker Compose?

It Is a YAML file that contains details required to set up

the Docker application

It can be used to create, host separate containers, and

establish communication between containers
 Getting Started with Docker Compose

Create a directory for the project and create ‘.py’ file in the project
directory

Create a Dockerfile that builds a Docker image

Define services in a Compose file

Build and run the app with Compose

Edit the Compose file to add a bind mount

Re-build and run the app with Compose

Importance And Applications
Docker Compose: Importance and Features

01 Uses multiple isolated environments on a single host

02 Preserves volume data when containers are created

Caches the container configuration and recreates only

03 when a container is changed

Supports variables and uses them to customize composition

04 for different environments
 Applications of Docker Compose

Isolated development Docker Compose can be used to create and interact

environments with an isolated environment to run applications

Docker Compose can be used to deploy applications to

Single host deployments
a remote Docker engine

Automated testing Docker Compose can be used to create and destroy

environments isolated testing environments
Docker CE
