[clug] Docker Introduction

[George at Clug]

Brad,


" an intro to docker"  - that would be interesting. Please make it
practical starting from installing Docker and setting up the
environment. Use CentOS if you want as most commercial systems use Red
Hat. I have tried to follow a number of "intros" but they seem to jump
though things way too fast for people not used to docker. Maybe I
could test out your "intro" for you once you have it together?


George.

 But I guess there are things you cannot easily use containers for? If
it were possible I would love to see a demo (that I can follow along
with) on how to containerise a Minecraft server. But I don't think a
Minecraft server is written to be containerised.






You don't need to write a server to be containerised, its just a
restricted set of processes.  You expose services on a port by port
basis.  There are some things you have to account for, but you can
mostly run anything you want.


I might start writing an intro to docker talk and see how it goes,
Steve will have to bug me for a timeframe.


Thanks,
Brad
