Containers allow for applications to become more portable, organized more efficiently, and configured to make better use of system resources. This presentation will explain Docker's container technology, DevOps approach, partner ecosystem, popularity, performance, challenges, and roadmap. We'll review how containers are changing application and operating system designs.

- 9. Docker Containers vs. Tradi?onal VMs § Tradi?onal VMs include wasted resources to support the Guest OS while Docker makes use of layering to share common OS / lib por?ons of images. 4/17/15 9
- 10. What is a container? § Modeled on the success of shipping containers, an applica?on container is designed to contain a complete deployment unit for an applica?on to allow for automa?on, version tracking, and rapid deployment. 4/17/15 10
- 11. What is in a container? § Applica?on deployments have focused on the applica?on binaries and relied on opera?ons for the applica?on’s dependencies (Java JRE, Ruby Gems, Python, App Server, etc.) § Docker images include these applica?on dependencies in the container along with the applica?on. 4/17/15 11 WAR file construcJon: Docker image construcJon:
- 12. Docker: Dockerfiles § Dockerfiles document how to construct the container and what to execute when it is running. § Normally a container should contain a single process. § Dockerfiles are readable and maintainable along with applica?on source code. 4/17/15 12

- 21. Docker Machine § Machine makes it really easy to create Docker hosts on your computer, on cloud providers and inside your own data center. It creates servers, installs Docker on them, then configures the Docker client to talk to them. 4/17/15 21 § Drivers exist for: – So^Layer – AWS – DigitalOcean – Azure – Google Compute Engine – Rackspace – OpenStack – Virtualbox – VMWare Fusion – VMWare vSphere – Hyperv
- 22. Docker Swarm § Docker Swarm is na?ve clustering for Docker. It turns a pool of Docker hosts into a single, virtual host. § Has support for etcd, consul, and zookeeper host discovery systems. § Integra?ons planned with Bluemix, Mesos, Kubernetes, AWS, Azure 4/17/15 22
- 23. Docker Compose § Compose is a tool for defining and running complex applica?ons with Docker. With Compose, you define a mul?-‐container applica?on in a single file, then spin your applica?on up in a single command which does everything that needs to be done to get it running. 4/17/15 23 Defined in yaml:
- 24. Designing for Docker – Applica?on Design § Because of Docker’s design, refactoring may be needed to run on Docker well. Cloud-‐friendly designs principles like The Twelve Factor App and Microservices can enable applica?ons to run well in Docker containers. 4/17/15 24 hop://marJnfowler.com/arJcles/microservices.html hop://12factor.net/ hop://www.slideshare.net/adrianco
- 25. Designing for Docker – Opera?on System Design § Opera?ng systems are being redesigned to focus on running containers. Dubbed “Minimalist OS”, these opera?ng systems offer some key poten?al benefits: – Improved security through smaller a_ack surfaces and isola?on techniques – Small image sizes and fast start up ?mes – Transac?onal upgrade and rollback op?ons § Some examples of these minimalist OSes include: – CoreOS – Red Hat’s Project Atomic – Ubuntu’s Snappy Ubuntu Core – RancherOS – Microso^’s Nano Server 4/17/15 25 Architecture of RancherOS
- 26. Docker Challenges: Networking § Connec?ng containers within the same host isn’t too difficult but the complexity grows when containers need to communicate across hosts. § How is this being addressed: – Service Discovery: • Docker Swarm • Etcd • Consul • Zookeeper – So^ware Defined Networks (SDN) • Socketplane.io (Docker AcquisiJon) • IBM’s SDN-‐VE • Weave • CoreOS’ Flannel 4/17/15 26
- 27. Docker Challenges: Lack of Enterprise Features § Enterprise features commonly found in modern virtualiza?on planorms not yet available in Docker. Features such as: – Fine Grained Administra?on Access Control – Live Migra?on of Containers – Backup and Restore Op?ons – Administra?on Tools for Large Scale Deployments – Support for Audi?ng and Logging – Regulatory Compliance § Ac?ve development underway to address these gaps. Major enterprise technology vendors are construc?ng solu?ons for many of these areas. 4/17/15 27
- 28. Docker Challenges: Security § Container security receiving much more scru?ny now and poten?al vulnerabili?es are receiving a_en?on. Areas of risk include: – Docker Engine daemon runs as root – Lack of encryp?on op?ons – Docker API endpoints – Integrity of images – Containers may be able to execute too many system calls – Containers may have access to file system § Coordinated development underway to address these issues. § Concerns especially high concerns for mul?-‐tenant deployments: – “These containers aren't secure. They don't have that kind of isola?on. They're sharing so much of their underlying opera?ng system that they can't be effec?vely secured, at least not to the kind of level of risk that we'd be comfortable running two different customers in containers side by side” – Microso^ Azure CTO Mark Russinovich 4/17/15 28
- 29. Docker Compe??on Announcements: CoreOS § 12/1/14 – Announces new container run?me Rocket: – CoreOS claims Docker has lost sight of original “standard container” vision: “Docker now is building tools for launching cloud servers, systems for clustering, and a wide range of func?ons: building images, running images, uploading, downloading, and eventually even overlay networking, all compiled into one monolithic binary running primarily as root on your server” – Requests community input on a new standard: • App Container Image • App Container RunJme 4/17/15 29
- 30. What’s Next for Docker? § 04/14/2015 – Docker Raises $95M Series D Round for Its Container Planorm § Construc?ng full planorm for containers § Integra?ng strategic acquisi?ons (Orchard, Kitema?c, SocketPlane) § Adding enterprise features through partnerships (IBM, Amazon, Google, Red Hat, VMWare, Microso^, etc.) § Adding support for Windows Containers through Microso^ partnership § Becoming the deployment planorm of choice for microservices § Mone?zing images and containers 4/17/15 30
- 31. What’s IBM Doing with Docker § Open Source Par?cipa?on: – IBM contributes to the Docker projects (core contributors) – IBM contributes Docker related func?onality to other projects as well (OpenStack) § New Products/Offerings: – IBM Container Service on Bluemix (currently in Beta, GA planned for 2Q15) – IBM Docker Hub Enterprise Registry (to be released in 2Q15) § Support for Docker on IBM hardware: – pSeries Power Systems – zSeries Mainframe Systems § Support for Docker on IBM So^ware: – UrbanCode – PureApp – WebSphere – DB2 4/17/15 31
