Ebook: Troubleshooting Docker

Strategically design, troubleshoot, and automate Docker containers from development to deploymentAbout This Book* Develop, test, automate, and deploy production-ready Docker containers* Utilize current and emergent technologies for effective Docker orchestration and management* A step-by-step guide to diagnosing and fixing problems with Docker containersWho This Book Is ForThis book is intended for seasoned solutions architects, developers, and programmers, system engineers, and administrators to help you troubleshoot common areas of Docker containerization. If you are looking to build production-ready Docker containers for automated deployment, you will be able to master and troubleshoot both the basic functions and the advanced features of Docker. Advanced familiarity with the Linux command line syntax, unit testing, the Docker Registry, Github, and leading container hosting platforms and Cloud Service Providers (CSP) are the prerequisites.What You Will Learn* Install Docker ecosystem tools and services* Test, troubleshoot, and automate the image building process* Design and implement Microservices and N-tier applications* Create re-usable, portable containers* Network and inter-link containers* Attach volumes securely to containers* Consume and troubleshoot Docker APIs* Orchestrate and manage containers with Docker Machine, Compose, and Swarm* Update, maintain, and secure containersIn DetailDocker is an open source, container-based virtualization platform that enables anyone to consistently develop and deploy stable applications anywhere. Docker delivers speed, simplicity, and security in creating scalable, portable environments for ultramodern applications.With the advent and prevalence of Docker in the containerization of modern microservices and n-tier applications, it is both prudent and imperative to effectively troubleshoot automated workflows for production-level deployments. This book will traverse some common best practices for complex application scenarios where troubleshooting can be successfully employed to provide the repeatable processes and advantages that containers can deliver.By sequentially working through the real-world production scenarios throughout the book, you will gain insight into and mastery of common areas not only for effective troubleshooting, but ways to avoid troubleshooting in the first place. This book will ensure your success with this emergent technology into tested, automated real-world deployment.
