21 Days of Docker-Day 1 — Introduction to Docker

Docker Architecture

As mentioned above, the docker uses a client-server architecture. The Docker client talks to the Docker daemon, which does the heavy lifting of building, running, and distributing your Docker containers

Docker Registries

A Docker registry stores Docker images it’s similar to GitHub for docker. Docker Hub is a public registry that anyone can use, and Docker is configured to look for images on Docker Hub by default. You can even run your own private registry(eg: Nexus, Artifactory)

https://hub.docker.com/

Docker Installation

Docker support a wide variety of operating systems which includes

  • Linux
  • Mac
  • Windows

Installation of Docker is Pretty straightforward

NOTE:  in general, kernel 3.10 is the absolute minimum kernel version that supports the features that Docker requires to run stable (newer versions are preferred though).

Centos7

  • Run this command. It will add the official Docker repository, download the latest version of Docker, and install it:
curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh
  • After the installation has completed, start the Docker daemon:
sudo systemctl start docker
  • Verify that it’s running:
sudo systemctl status docker
  • Make sure its enabled after reboot
sudo systemctl enable  docker
  • If you would like to use Docker as a non-root user, you should now consider adding your user to the “docker” group with something like:
sudo usermod -aG docker your-user

NOTE: Remember to log out and back in for this to take effect!

  2. Hello would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a difficult time making a decision between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S Sorry for being off-topic but I had to ask!|
