Automating Jenkins Docker Setup

Posted on: 01/24/2018

Jenkins is, by far, the most used CI/CD tool in the market. That comes as no surprise since it’s been around for a while, it has one of the biggest open source communities, it has enterprise version for those who need it, and it is straightforward to extend it to suit (almost) anyone’s needs....

Kubernetes Secrets Compared To Docker Swarm Secrets

Kubernetes Ingress Compared To Docker Swarm Equivalent

Posted on: 12/28/2017

Both Kubernetes and Docker Swarm have Ingress, and it might sound compelling to compare them and explore the differences. While that, on the first look, might seem like a right thing to do, there is a problem. Ingress works quite differently across the two....

Kubernetes Deployments Compared To Docker Swarm Stacks

This article is part of the series that compare Kubernetes and Docker Swarm features. Kubernetes Pods, ReplicaSets, And Services Compared To Docker Swarm Stacks Kubernetes Deployments Compared To Docker Swarm Stacks Kubernetes Ingress Compared To Docker Swarm Equivalent If you already used Docker Swarm, the logic behind Kubernetes Deployments should be familiar. Both serve the…...

Kubernetes Pods, ReplicaSets, And Services Compared To Docker Swarm Stacks

Posted on: 12/19/2017

Starting from this article, we’ll compare each Kubernetes feature with Docker Swarm equivalents. That way, Swarm users can have a smoother transition into Kubernetes or, depending on their goals, choose to stick with Swarm....

What Is A Container Scheduler?

Posted on: 12/19/2017

isolated and immutable. Isolation provides reliability. Isolation helps with networking and volume management. It avoids conflicts. It allows us to deploy anything, anywhere, without worrying whether that something will clash with other processes running on the same server. Schedulers, combined with containers and virtual machines, provide the ultimate cluster management nirvana. That will change in the future but, for now, container schedulers are the top of the engineering accomplishments. They allow us to combine the developer’s necessity for rapid and frequent deployments with sysadmin’s goals for stability and reproducibility. And that leads us to Kubernetes…...

Blueprint Of A Self-Sufficient Docker Cluster

Posted on: 11/15/2017

The article that follows is an extract from the last chapter of The DevOps 2.2 Toolkit: Self-Sufficient Docker Clusters book. It provides a good summary into the processes and tools we explored in the quest to build a self-sufficient cluster that can (mostly) operate without humans. We split the tasks that a self-sufficient system should…...
