Docker in Action

Even small applications have dozens of components. Large applications may have thousands, which makes them challenging to install, maintain, and remove. Docker bundles all application components into a package called a container that keeps things tidy and helps manage any dependencies on other applications or infrastructure.

Docker in Action, Second Edition teaches you the skills and knowledge you need to create, deploy, and manage applications hosted in Docker containers. This bestseller has been fully updated with new examples, best practices, and entirely new chapters. You’ll start with a clear explanation of the Docker model and learn how to package applications in containers, including techniques for testing and distributing applications.
