#Rancher

Rancher is an open source project that provides a complete platform for operating Docker in production. It provides infrastructure services such as multi-host networking, global and local load balancing, and volume snapshots. It integrates native Docker management capabilities such as Docker Machine and Docker Swarm. It offers a rich user experience that enables devops admins to operate Docker in production at large scale.

Installation

Rancher is deployed as a set of Docker containers. Running Rancher is a simple as launching two containers. One container as the management server and another container on a node as an agent. You can install the containers in following approaches.

Manually
Vagrant
Puppet (Thanks @nickschuch)
Ansible

Requirements

Docker 1.6.0+
Ubuntu 14.04 or CoreOS 494+
- Note: These are the only tested distributions at the moment, but most modern Linux distributions will work
RAM: 1GB+

Launching Management Server

docker run -d --restart=always -p 8080:8080 rancher/server

The UI and API are available on the exposed port 8080.
