Docker Basics & Alfresco Content Services
1 like•606 views
This document discusses Docker best practices and provides an overview of deploying Alfresco Content Services using Docker containers. It begins with 8 best practices for working with Docker, such as packaging a single application per container and building the smallest possible image. It then covers a Docker hands-on lab and demonstrates deploying Alfresco using Docker Compose for local development. The document compares standard installation to using Docker images and discusses the Alfresco Content Services packaging repositories.

- 3. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. Agenda § Best practices working with Docker § Docker Hands on Lab § Standard installer Vs Docker images deployment (docker-compose) § Demo – Alfresco deployment using docker-compose for local development
- 4. Best Practices Working With Docker
- 5. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. 1. Package A Single Application Per Container
- 6. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. 2. Handle Pid1, Signal Handling And Zombie Process § Docker sends Linux signals to your application inside the container to stop it § PID 1 receives this signal § For your application to be stopped gracefully when needed, you need to properly handle those signals
- 7. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. 3. Optimize For The Docker Build Cache § Image layers are cached which helps to accelerate later builds FROM python:3.5 COPY my_code/ /src RUN pip install my_requirements FROM python:3.5 RUN pip install my_requirements COPY my_code/ /src
- 8. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. 4. Remove Unecessary Tools § Remove everything that the application doesn’t need from your container § Include just your application in a distroless or scratch image
- 9. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. 5. Build The Smallest Image Possible § Benefits: § Decreases download times, § Reduces cold start times § Reduces disk usage § Strategies: § Start with a minimal base image § Leverage common layers between images § Make user of Docker’s multi-stage build feature
- 10. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. Multi-stage build
- 11. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. 6. Properly Tag Your Images § Tags are how the users choose which version of your image they want to use § 2 ways to tag images: § Semantic Versioning § Using Git commit hash of your application § Be careful while using “latest” tag
- 12. Learn. Connect. Collaborate. 7. Carefully consider whether to use a public image § Never ever use a public image in production environment § Malicious images reported on docker hub recently § Docker hub deleted account - docker123321 Reference Article: https://kromtech.com/blog/security-center/cryptojacking-invades-cloud-how-modern- containerization-trend-is-exploited-by-attackers https://github.com/docker/hub-feedback/issues/1554
