Simplify the development and orchestration of multi-container applications
Software development is becoming increasingly complex due to the various software components used. Applications need to be packaged with software components to facilitate their operations, making it complicated to run them. With Docker Compose, a single command can set up your application and the needed dependencies. This book starts with an overview of Docker Compose and its usage and then shows how to create an application. You will also get to grips with the fundamentals of Docker volumes and network, along with Compose commands, their purpose, and use cases.
This book covers the following exciting features:
- Create multi-container applications using Docker Compose
- Use Docker Compose for daily development
- Connect microservices leveraging Docker network fundamentals
- Add monitoring to services leveraging Prometheus
- Deploy to production using Docker Compose
- Translate Compose files to Kubernetes deployments
