The Practical Guide to Running Docker on Linux Systems or Cloud Environments

Whether on your laptop or a remote cloud, Docker can transform how you create, test, deploy, and manage your most critical applications. In Docker Containers, Christopher Negus helps you master Docker containerization from the ground up.

 

You’ll start out running a few Docker container images in Ubuntu, Fedora, RHEL, CoreOS, or Project Atomic. By the time you’ve finished, you’ll be deploying enterprise-quality, multi-container Kubernetes setups in modern Linux and cloud environments.

 

Writing for system administrators, software developers, and technology enthusiasts, Negus touches on every aspect of working with Docker: setting up containerized applications, working with both individual and multiple containers, running containers in cloud environments, and developing containers.

 

Teaching through realistic examples of desktop applications, system services, and games, Negus guides you through building and deploying your own Dockerized applications. As you build your expertise, you’ll also learn indispensable Docker best practices for building and integrating containers, managing Docker on a day-to-day basis, and much more:

 

• Understanding what Docker is and what you can do with it• Installing Docker on standard Linux or specialized container operating systems such as Atomic Host and CoreOS• Setting up a container runtime environment and private Docker Registry• Creating, running, and investigating Docker images and containers• Finding, pulling, saving, loading, and tagging container images• Pulling and pushing containers between local systems and Docker Registries• Integrating Docker containers with host networking and storage• Building containers with the docker build command and Dockerfile files• Minimizing space consumption and erasing unneeded containers• Accessing special host privileges from within a container• Orchestrating multiple containers into complex applications with Kubernetes• Using super privileged containers in cloud environments• Managing containers in the cloud with Cockpit• Getting started with Docker container development• Learning container build techniques from shared Dockerfiles

 

This book is part of the Pearson Content Update Program. As the technology changes, sections of this book will be updated or new sections will be added. The updates will be delivered to you via a free Web Edition of this book, which can be accessed with any Internet connection.

As the mass migration to containerize software applications continues, Kubernetes has overwhelmingly become the platform to run those applications. Cloud providers like AWS, Google, and Microsoft bundle complex Kubernetes services to make it easier to deploy and scale applications. On-premises data centers and devices let companies manage the costs and security of their Kubernetes clusters themselves. Kubernetes can also be found outside of data centers for edge computing, IOT devices, and 5G networks. Kubernetes is literally everywhere.

The demand for Kubernetes expertise at a premium as the leading platform for large clouds and small on-premises computing. Kubernetes Everywhere steps you through creating your own on-premises, professional-grade Kubernetes cluster. Along the way, you gain the knowledge to master features such as deployment methods, network setup, storage management, node autoscaling, authentication, and pod and cluster security. You learn ways to obtain Kubernetes certifications, find online resources for trying Kubernetes and participate in the Kubernetes project community. While the book points out quick-start ways of using Kubernetes, the main difference from other Kubernetes instructions is its focus on careful planning and understanding at each step in the process. You learn each topic at the point in the process where you would be setting it up in a real Kubernetes cluster.

Learn how to use BSD UNIX systems from the command line with BSD UNIX Toolbox: 1000+ Commands for FreeBSD, OpenBSD and NetBSD. Learn to use BSD operation systems the way the experts do, by trying more than 1,000 commands to find and obtain software, monitor system health and security, and access network resources. Apply your newly developed skills to use and administer servers and desktops running FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, or any other BSD variety. Become more proficient at creating file systems, troubleshooting networks, and locking down security.
