Run Docker on AWS and build real world secure and scalable container platforms in the cloud

Key Features

• Configuring Docker for ECS environment;
• Integrating Docker with different AWS services;
• Implementing Container networking and deployment at scale.

Book Description

Docker, by far has been one of the top used tools for containerization. Since the migration of infrastructure towards cloud, use of Docker on cloud platforms is slowly becoming the need of the hour.

You will get started learning the basics of containers, Docker and AWS, and then proceed to install Docker on your local machine, setup an AWS account, and establish access to your account. We will then deep dive into the Elastic Container Service, the native container management platform provided by AWS, which simplifies management and operation of your Docker clusters and applications for no additional cost over above your infrastructure usage. We will solve key operational challenges including secrets management and auto scaling your infrastructure and applications, and finally learn about alternative strategies for deploying and running your Docker applications on AWS, including Fargate, Elastic Beanstalk and Docker Swarm.

By the end of this book you will have an advanced understanding of running Docker in AWS and be able to build real world secure and scalable container platforms in the cloud.

What you will learn

• Understand how to build, deploy and operate Docker applications using AWS
• Gain a deep understanding of how to design, deploy and operate Docker applications running on Elastic Container Service, the flagship container orchestration platform offered by AWS
• Learn how to solve key operational challenges such as secrets management, infrastructure lifecycle management and auto scaling
• Leverage the powerful capabilities and tight integration of other AWS services
• Deploy Docker applications quickly, consistently and reliably using infrastructure as code

Who This Book Is For

This book is targeted at anybody who wants to build, deploy and operate applications using the power of containers, Docker and Amazon Web Services. Whether you are a developer who wants to understand more how to package and deploy your container applications, an operations engineer who is responsible for deploying and operating containers, or an architect looking to understand best practices and solutions for architecting and designing robust container platforms in the cloud, this book will provide you with the knowledge to leverage the power of Docker and the rich ecosystem of AWS services to scale and deliver your applications faster, more securely and with greater reliability.

Readers ideally should have a basic understanding of containers and have worked with Amazon Web Services or another cloud provider, although no previous experience with containers or AWS is absolutely required.
