Docker-ization of services
-
Anybody have experience with this? I'm looking at possibly moving our webserver/webstore to docker containers for better resource utilization and easier development/deployment. I feel like I've got the gist of how things work, but looking for resources to help plan things out and any advice from those who have already done something similar.
-
We have been getting ready to start working with Docker at NTG and I have some friends who have been doing Docker stuff. Been working with containers for over a decade, though.
-
What are you looking at using for your container hosts? I think our site/store will be living on a AWS-EC2 instance eventually, but I was thinking of dabbling with a few CoreOS VMs just to see what benefits that might bring. Would I be okay hosting containers directly on my KVM Hypervisor, or should I just spin up a VM or two and host them there?
-
Containers don't run on KVM last I knew. They go on an OS. Or do you mean side by side with the VMs like ProxMox does?
-
I would spin up a VM and put them there. CoreOS looks interesting. Ubuntu is pretty heavy into containers now, but less about Docker.
-
Yes, I meant side-by-side with VMs.
