Docker containers Sample Clauses

Docker containers. In a microservices architecture, the deployment of the microservices is of critical importance and has the following key requirements: ➔ Ability to deploy/undeploy microservices independent from other microservices ➔ Ability to scale on microservices level (a given service may get more traffic than other services) ➔ Fast and easy building and deployment of microservices ➔ Failure in one microservice must not affect any of the other services Containerization This term refers to the use of containers. A container is a virtualized server at the operating system level, for which the virtual instance only concerns the user space, i.e. the application execution environment. Therefore, we do not virtualize the processor, storage, network connections, etc. of the physical server, which remain shared between the running containers. This approach means that containers are "lighter" than virtual machines, require fewer resources and can be activated very rapidly and therefore can respond to situations with sudden loads and peaks. Docker Docker is a world-leading CaaS (Container-as-a-Service platform). It is fully open source, under license Apache 2.0 and is the most dominant tool in the container ecosystem at the moment, used in production stage by companies like eBay, Uber and PayPal.14 The container is a way to package software along with required binaries and settings, isolated on a shared operating system. 15 Docker makes it easier to create and manage a microservices application than the old SOA paradigm allowed. Once your services have been Dockerized in containers, you can deploy those containers to any server with Docker installed and combine them to compose complex applications. You can move them around between hosts for portability. And you can use container orchestration tools for automatic provisioning. The key steps involved are the following: 16 ➔ Package the microservice as a (Docker) container image ➔ Deploy each service instance as a container ➔ Scaling is realized by changing the number of container instances ➔ Building, deploying, and starting a microservice is much faster using Docker containers than by using virtual machines. 14 xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx/ 15 xxxxx://xxxxx.xxx/articles/microservices-with-docker 16 xxxxx://xxxxx.xxx/articles/microservices-in-practice-1 Figure 13: Microservices deployment – VMs vs Containers The comparative table below shows the benefits of choosing containers over VMs: Table 2: Comparative table - VMs vs Containers Mi...
