Docker

Develop fast and run anywhere

Docker simplifies application development and deployment for desktop and cloud. A comprehensive platform for the entire application delivery lifecycle. Fast, easy and portable.

Docker

The standard for modern software development

Discover the future of application development and deployment with Docker – the revolutionary container technology that forever changed the way companies build, test and deploy software. Docker allows applications to run in lightweight, isolated containers, independent of the underlying infrastructure. No more annoying compatibility issues – your applications will always run consistently and reliably, whether in the development environment, on test servers or in production. With Docker you accelerate development cycles, shorten delivery times and reduce complexity. This allows you to quickly scale applications and easily move them between environments to offer your customers a seamless experience. Don’t be left behind – immerse yourself in the world of Docker and take your applications to the next level. Experience the future of software development with Docker!

Features

Holistic development and delivery

Docker handles repetitive, mundane configuration tasks and is used throughout the development lifecycle for fast, easy, and portable application development – desktop and cloud. Docker’s comprehensive end-to-end platform includes user interfaces, CLIs, APIs, and security features that work together across the entire application delivery lifecycle.

Containerization

Docker allows applications to be containerized so that they can run in isolated environments. Containers enable applications to run consistently and reliably across different environments.

Platform Independence

Docker containers are platform independent and run on any system that supports Docker, whether Linux, Windows or macOS. This allows developers to build and test applications in one environment and then easily run them on other systems.

Rapid Deployment

Docker enables rapid deployment of applications and services. Containers can be created, launched, and scaled in seconds, increasing efficiency when developing and deploying applications.

Resource Isolation

Docker provides efficient resource isolation for containers. Each container has its own processes, memory and network interfaces, ensuring applications are isolated from each other and there are no resource conflicts.

R

Easy administration and orchestration

Docker allows easy management of containers using Docker Compose or orchestration tools like Docker Swarm or Kubernetes. This makes it easier to deploy and manage applications, especially in a scalable and distributed environment.

Image reusability

Docker uses images that serve as templates for containers. These images are reusable and can be deployed across different environments, increasing application consistency and portability, and reducing development and deployment time.

Example

Just start with Docker

Docker can be controlled using the Docker desktop as well as CLI commands. However, the use of Docker Compose is recommended for quick testing of applications, as it also connects different Docker images to each other and enables complex scenarios in a reusable configuration. Docker Compose is a tool that allows developers to define and manage multiple container applications with a single configuration file. It simplifies the deployment of complex applications consisting of multiple services or containers and allows the application environment to be easily replicated and scaled. Docker Compose is an extremely useful tool for efficiently developing and managing applications. Try it out and make your work with containers easier! Learn more

The compose file defines a stack with two services: Prometheus and Grafana. When deploying the stack, Docker Compose maps the default ports for each service to the corresponding ports on the host, making it easier to inspect each service’s web interface. To do this, make sure that ports 9090 and 3000 are not already in use on the host.

 
 
 
services:
  prometheus:
    image: prom/prometheus
    container_name: prometheus
    command:
      - '--config.file=/etc/prometheus/prometheus.yml'
    ports:
      - 9090:9090
    restart: unless-stopped
    volumes:
      - ./prometheus:/etc/prometheus
      - prom_data:/prometheus
  grafana:
    image: grafana/grafana
    container_name: grafana
    ports:
      - 3000:3000
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_USER=admin
      - GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD=grafana
    volumes:
      - ./grafana:/etc/grafana/provisioning/datasources
volumes:
  prom_data:

With a simple command in the directory of the compose.yaml file, the required container images are loaded, started and provided with the appropriate port releases.

 
 
 
$ docker compose up -d
Creating network "prometheus-grafana_default" with the default driver
Creating volume "prometheus-grafana_prom_data" with default driver
...
Creating grafana    ... done
Creating prometheus ... done
Attaching to prometheus, grafana

Service

Docker Consulting

We help you with the conception, installation and integration of your environment – for more power, know-how, peace of mind!

Power

Years of experience

We have been supporting our customers in operating their IT infrastructures for many years. Industries, tools, operating systems – we’ve seen, operated and built everything. We know the best practices with Docker, Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Rancher & Co. and many topics related to Open Source and Linux.

Know How

Full Understanding

We not only understand your IT systems and services, but the big picture and the countless aspects of operating complex IT infrastructures. There is often a lack of time and personnel with increasing complexity and a rapidly changing IT world.

Peace of Mind

Targeted Reinforcement

As Linux generalists and open source experts, we have a broad base and are well integrated into the open source communities. With us you are never alone! Whether as an IT consultant, engineer, support or architect – we strengthen your team and relieve you of work.

Everything from a single source
