5 part Docker series, beginner to master

Follow me on Twitter, happy to take your suggestions on topics or improvements /Chris

  • Sign up for a free Azure account To use containers in the Cloud like a private registry you will need a free Azure account
  • Docker part I - basics This part covers what Docker is and why I think you should use it. It brings up concepts such as images and containers and takes you through building and running your first container
  • Docker part II - volumes this is about Volumes and how we can use volumes to persist data but also how we can turn our development environment into a Volume and make our development experience considerably better
  • Docker part III - databases, linking and networks this is about how to deal with Databases, putting them into containers and how to make containers talk to other containers using legacy linking but also the new standard through networks
  • Docker part IV - introducing Docker Compose this is how we manage more than one service using Docker Compose ( this is 1/2 part on Docker Compose)
  • Docker part V- going deeper with Docker Compose this part is the second and concluding part on Docker Compose where we cover Volumes, Environment Variables and working with Databases and Networks

just seeing this today i feel i have found what i've been looking for for some days.

was about to start a side project and wanted everything containerized and deployed to azure or aws and this seems to have all the pointers i need to know how to go about my side project.

i'll keep coming back here when i run into any road blocks. i hope you'll be available to help out.

Hello Chris, I've found "an issue" with the post series, if you change the name of them posts so they follow the same structure "Learn Docker from the beginning - Part X, That this and that" they'll show properly in the "Index" when you browse through the posts.

hi Jose. I did rename them pere your suggestion. Doesn't help I'm afraid. I think the order is decided based on when the series tag was added to each post
