10 Docker Tricks Every Developer Should Know (You’ll Kick Yourself for Not Trying #3!)

Image
Whether you're a seasoned developer or just starting with containers, these 10 game-changing Docker tricks will supercharge your workflow.  From shrinking image sizes to orchestrating multi-container apps, you'll wonder how you ever managed without #3! Let’s dive in! 👇 1. Use Multi-Stage Builds for Smaller Images Why: Reduce image size and improve performance. How: Separate build and runtime stages in your Dockerfile. 2. Leverage .dockerignore for Faster Builds Why: Avoid copying unnecessary files into your Docker image. How: Create a .dockerignore file in your project. 3. Use --squash to Merge Layers Why: Reduce image size by squashing intermediate layers. How: Use experimental features to enable squashing during build. 4. Inspect and Debug Running Containers Why: Quickly check issues inside a container. How: Use docker exec or docker logs . 5. Tag Images Like a Pro Why: Maintain version control and avoid ambiguity. How: Use clear tagging conventions. 6. Clean ...

What does Docker do? (Key Functions)

Image
Docker is a powerful platform that simplifies the development, deployment, and management of applications by leveraging containerization. Here's how Docker streamlines the entire process from packaging to execution. 1. Containerization and Image Creation - Docker packages applications and their dependencies into portable containers using images, which contain everything needed to run the application. 2. Container and Resource Management - Docker manages the lifecycle of containers, ensuring efficient use of system resources by sharing the host OS across multiple containers. 3. Isolation and Security - Docker provides isolation between containers and the host system, ensuring that each container operates in a secure, independent environment. 4. Portability - Docker containers run consistently across various environments, whether on-premises, in the cloud, or on a local machine. 5. Networking and Volume Management - Docker facilitates secure communication between containers an...

What is Docker? How Docker Works? Docker Architecture?

In this quick post, we will understand about Docker through Sketch: What is Docker? Docker's Underlying Technology ? What is Docker Engine (CRE)? How Docker Engine works? What is Docker Image & How to create Docker Image? Docker Architecture? Docker Important Commands? Stay tuned for upcoming parts and follow below channels Youtube :  T3P - Technology To The Point

Kubernetes Architecture

Image
Kubernetes (K8s) is known as an Orchestrator for containers/microservies applications. If we talk about it from higher level, it is a cluster of nodes where applications are running. 

Docker Features

Image
Docker CLI The most powerful interface to interact with Docker Containers. It is a simple command line Interface tool which integrates with Cmd Prompt and PowerShell in Windows and with default terminal in Linux based Operating System.

Docker Architecture

Image
Docker Architecture provides details about all major components belongs to docker platform, also explain how each components works together to fulfill requirements. Also we will see, how the actions will takes once run the commands in Docker Client (CLI).

Networking in Containers

Image
Overview Docker containers and it's services are so powerful because these can connect together, or can connect with the workload which is not running on docker. Even our containers and services are not required to be aware that they are running on docker or not even their peers.

Containers

Container is a standard package of software that bundles an application’s code together with related configuration files, libraries and the dependent required binaries to run an application independently.

Docker Engine

Docker Engine is a heart of Docker and it is installed with default docker installation. It works on Client-Server model. It actually performs all the tasks for docker.

Docker - To The Point

Docker is an open source platform which helps us to manage life-cycle of containers. It uses Container Runtime Engine (CRE) known as Docker Engine or Docker Daemon to perform all tasks (create, delete, run etc.) on containers.
