Docker Training

Docker is an open platform for building, shipping and running distributed applications. It allows applications to be run in lightweight containers that share resources on a host machine for improved performance and portability compared to virtual machines. Docker uses layered filesystems and namespaces/cgroups in the Linux kernel for isolation. Developers can define Docker images using Dockerfiles that specify dependencies and commands, and share images on Docker Hub for others to easily deploy applications.

Introduction to Docker

Introduction to Docker - Rizky Faisal
DOCKER HISTORY ……
• A dotCloud (PAAS provider) project

• Initial commit January 18, 2013

• Docker 0.1.0 released March 25, 2013

• 18,600+ github stars, 3800+ forks,740 Contributors…. and continues

• dotCloud pivots to docker inc. October 29, 2013


What is Docker ?!!!

• Open platform for developers and sysadmins to build, ship and run
distributed applications

• Can run on popular 64-bit Linux distributions with kernel 3.8 or later

• Supported by several cloud platforms including Amazon EC2, Google


Compute Engine, and Rackspace.
Features….
• Light-Weight
o Minimal overhead (cpu/io/network)
o Based on Linux containers
o Uses layered filesystem to save space (AUFS/LVM)
o Uses a copy-on-write filesystem to track changes
• Portable
o Can run on any Linux system that supports LXC (today).
o 0.7 release includes support for RedHat/Fedora family.
o Raspberry pi support.
o Future plans to support other container tools (lmctfy, etc.)
o Possible future support for other operating systems (Solaris, OSX, Windows?)
• Self-sufficient
o A Docker container contains everything it needs to run
o Minimal Base OS
o Libraries and frameworks
o Application code
o A docker container should be able to run anywhere that Docker can run.
The Challenge……
The Matrix From Hell……
Cargo Transport Pre-1960……
Also a Matrix from Hell……
Solution: Intermodal Shipping Container……
Docker is a Container System for Code……
Docker Eliminates the Matrix from Hell……
Why it Works: Separation of Concerns……
Docker Architecture……
• Docker Engine
– CLI
– Docker Daemon
– Docker Registry
• Docker Hub
– Cloud service
• Share Applications
• Automate workflows
• Assemble apps from components
•Docker images
•Docker containers
Docker Containers...
Units of software delivery (ship it!)

● run everywhere
– regardless of kernel version
– regardless of host distro
– (but container and host architecture must match*)

● run anything
– if it can run on the host, it can run in the container
– i.e., if it can run on a Linux kernel, it can run
Containers before Docker……
Containers after Docker ……
How does Docker work ?

• You can build Docker images that hold your applications

• You can create Docker containers from those Docker images to run your
applications.

• You can share those Docker images via Docker Hub or your own registry
Virtual Machine Versus Container……
Virtual Machine Versus Container……
Docker Container Lifecycle ……
• The Life of a Container
– Conception
• BUILD an Image from a Dockerfile
– Birth
• RUN (create+start) a container
– Reproduction
• COMMIT (persist) a container to a new image
• RUN a new container from an image
– Sleep
• KILL a running container
– Wake
• START a stopped container
– Death
• RM (delete) a stopped container
• Extinction
– RMI a container image (delete image)
Linux Cgroups ……
• Kernel Feature
• Groups of processes
• Control resource allocations
– CPU
– Memory
– Disk
– I/O
• May be nested
Linux Kernel Namespaces ……
• Kernel Feature
• Restrict your view of the system
– Mounts (CLONE_NEWNS)
– UTS (CLONE_NEWUTS)
• uname() output
– IPC (CLONE_NEWIPC)
– PID (CLONE_NEWPID)
– Networks (CLONE_NEWNET)
– User (CLONE_NEWUSER)
• Not supported in Docker yet
• Has privileged/unprivileged modes today
• May be nested
Dockerfile ……
• Like a Makefile (shell script with keywords)
• Extends from a Base Image
• Results in a new Docker Image
• Imperative, not Declarative
•A Docker file lists the steps needed to build an images
• docker build is used to run a Docker file
• Can define default command for docker run, ports to expose, etc
Docker CLI Commands (v1.1.2)……

SUMMARY……

• Easy to build, run & share containers


• Rapidly expanding ecosystem
• Better performance vs. VMs
• Layered file system gives us git-like control of images
• Reduces complexity of system builds
•Red Hat - Project Atomic Host, and certifications - containerized
applications, Geard and OpenShift.
•Google is expected to tightly integrate containers with its IaaS and PaaS
offerings.
