Docker Birthday #5: Thank you Docker Community! 

Last month, Docker turned five! In celebration of this milestone, we turned the spotlight on our amazing global community of customers, users, Community Leaders, Captains, mentors, partners and sponsors, and asked them to reflect on their Docker learning journey. Everyone came together to celebrate how far they had come, think about where they would like to go and take that next step towards reaching their goal.

We had a lot of fun during the #dockerbday with the Quebec #Docker community! Thanks to @ingeno for sponsoring the event, @tnazare for the cake and for being an awesome mentor!  #dockerselfie #DockerQC pic.twitter.com/YZZNkWfWjq

We invite you to do the same. Whether you just want to test the waters, or want to dive right in, there are a variety of ways for you to take the next step on your Docker journey:

Just getting started and want to learn the basics? Check out the Play with Docker Classroom and work through our self paced labs to learn about containers and the Docker platform.

Want to learn about the latest update to Docker Enterprise Edition ? Join Docker and thousands of your peers for the Docker Enterprise Container Platform Virtual Event as we showcase how enterprises are accelerating their digital and multi-cloud initiatives with Docker Enterprise Edition (EE).

Love learning in-person? Join us at DockerCon in SF, June 12-15 208! Register here using the code BIRTHDAY10 for a special bday discount.

Are you a Docker expert and want to set yourself apart? Start the path to Docker certification here.

If you did celebrate Docker’s 5th birthday with us last month we would like to say a massive thank you! We were blown away by the number of people who came together to celebrate and improve their Docker skillset. We had 115 community events spread over 6 continents where thousands of people of all levels and walks of life came together to work through new Docker labs, meet other Docker users, get some fun swag and of course, enjoy a slice of Docker birthday cake! Thank you to our Community Leaders who made these events possible and to the mentors and sponsors who helped give the attendees an experience to remember.

We loved following the hashtag #dockerbday (used over 2,100 times!) to see how everyone celebrated. We can’t thank you enough for your support and enthusiasm!

I think Mr. Ray M (63) who started his career with Fortran, should be the oldest among us to celebrate #dockerbday . He joined @DockerPenang celebrations and was able to complete #Docker 101 for Linux and Windows. Modernizing Old People #MOP 🙂 pic.twitter.com/9BizJgLyV4
