Docker Online Meetup #42: Docker Captains Share Tips & Tricks for Using Docker 1.12
For this week’s Docker Online Meetup, Docker Captains Ajeet Singh Raina, Viktor Farcic and Bret Fisher shared their tips and tricks for built In Docker orchestration.
Ajeet talked about the best ways to use Docker 1.12 Service Discovery and shared key takeaways. Viktor talked about best practices for setting a Swarm cluster and integrating it with HAProxy. Bret concluded the meetup with a presentation on Docker 1.12 command options and aliases including cli aliases for quick container management; the shortest path to secure production-ready swarm; how to use cli filters for easier management of larger swarms; and docker remote cli security setup.

Docker Online Meetup #41: Deep Dive into Docker 1.12 Networking
For this week’s Docker Online Meetup, Sr. Director, Networking at Docker, Madhu Venugopal, joined us to talk about Docker 1.12 Networking and answer questions.
Starting with Docker 1.12, Docker has added features to the core Docker Engine to make multi-host and multi-container orchestration simple to use and accessible to everyone. Docker 1.12 Networking plays a key role in enabling these orchestration features.
In this online meetup, we learned all the new and exciting networking features introduced in Docker 1.12:
- Swarm-mode networking
- Routing Mesh
- Ingress and Internal Load-Balancing
- Service Discovery
- Encrypted Network Control-Plane and Data-Plane
- Multi-host networking without external KV-Store
- MACVLAN Driver
The number of questions Madhu got at the end of the online meetup was amazing and because he did not have time to answer all of them, we’ve added the rest of the Q&A below:
Q: Will you address the DNS configuration in Docker? We have two apps created with docker compose and would like to enable communication and DNS resolution from containers in one of the apps to containers in the other app.
Check out the PTAL external network feature in docker compose in the Docker docs to get started. If that Continue reading
Apply for a Docker Scholarship and learn how to code!
Today, Docker is proud to announce the launch of the Docker Scholarship Program in partnership with Reactor Core to improve opportunities for underrepresented groups in the tech industry! With the help of the community, we surpassed our goal for the DockerCon 2016 Bump Up Challenge unlocking $50,000 to fund three full tuition scholarships.
The Docker Scholarship Program is part of our continued work to improve opportunities for women and underrepresented groups throughout the global Docker ecosystem and encourage inclusivity in the larger tech community.
Docker’s Goal
The goal of the Docker scholarship program is to strengthen the broader tech community by making it more diverse and inclusive to traditionally underrepresented groups. We aim to achieve that goal by providing financial support and mentorship to three students at Reactor Core’s partner schools, Hack Reactor and Telegraph Academy.
Our Partnership with Hack Reactor and Telegraph Academy
Docker believes in the power of innovation and pushing our current technological boundaries. As a driver of innovation, we embrace our role in advancing opportunities for underrepresented groups in the tech industry. Hack Reactor and Telegraph Academy share in our vision of empowering people and creating more opportunities for every member of our community. Continue reading
