- 23. 23 SDA / Docker Integration Steps
- 24. 24 How Containers work • Containers are isolated environments that are created from docker images. • All the layers in an image are read-only except the topmost layer which is called a container. • You can commit the changes made to a container and make a new image out of it. • If specific images are not present in the host, docker will download it from the docker hub Image Taken from docs.docker.com
- 26. 26 Containers – not just docker!
- 27. 27 Do they work? Google, deals with more than two billion containers per week. That’s a lot of containers to manage. Popular Google services such as Gmail, Search, Apps and Maps run inside containers.
- 28. 28 Why would customers use containers ++ ENVIRONMENTS CONSISTENCY SIMPLICITY SECURITY ARCHITECTURE EXISTING INVESTMENT “Containers are faster, more efficient and easier to manage than Virtual Environments.”
