2. brief prologue “rafe” (rafecolton on the internets) software engineer, platform @ modcloth using docker in prod since v0.7.0 *todo: explain “doing the old thing the new way”

8. motivations • simplify application architecture • support a variety of application languages • make provisioning and deployment more accessible

9. motivations • simplify application architecture • support a variety of application languages • make provisioning and deployment more accessible goals • push-button provisioning and deployment • consolidated, pluggable platform • move to linux

10. motivations • simplify application architecture • support a variety of application languages • make provisioning and deployment more accessible goals • push-button provisioning and deployment • consolidated, pluggable platform • move to linux bonus points • chatops • actual button for provisioning and deployment

11. motivations goals bonus points • chatops • actual button for provisioning and deployment does docker facilitate such a solution? • simplify application architecture • support a variety of application languages • make provisioning and deployment more accessible • push-button provisioning and deployment • consolidated, pluggable platform • move to linux

24. challenges • overall complexity • maintainability • image consistency • container reliability • log aggregation • monitoring

25. challenges • overall complexity • maintainability • image consistency • container reliability • log aggregation • monitoring lessons • don’t do the new thing the old way • consider division of responsibility

28. observations docker is an excellent packaging and distribution system

29. observations docker is an excellent packaging and distribution system containers are the canonical building block for a continuous delivery pipeline

34. observation everybody is building containers differently.

35. observation everybody is building containers differently. how do we build production-ready containers?

36. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 0: getting started

37. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 0: getting started use a docker hub base

38. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 0: getting started set your env

39. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 1: order matters deps before bundling

40. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 1: order matters ADD only Gemfile* first

41. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 1: order matters `ADD .` as late as possible

42. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 2: optimize for size, repeatability combine RUN commands whenever possible

43. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 2: optimize for size, repeatability RUN dependent steps together

44. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 3: use a standard entrypoint use a *simple* entrypoint script

45. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 3: use a standard entrypoint operate on docker-specific environment variables

46. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 3: use a standard entrypoint wrap verbose CMD options

47. writing a good Dockerfile lesson 3: use a standard entrypoint exec "$@" # give yourself a shell

48. the image development lifecycle build *type things* push tag

49. the image development lifecycle > docker build -t myapp:latest . > export latest="$(docker images | grep myapp:latest | head -n 1 | awk '{print $3}’)" > docker tag $latest "$(git rev-parse -q HEAD)" # sha > docker tag $latest "$(git describe --always --dirty --tags)" # tag > docker tag $latest "$(git rev-parse -q --abbrev-ref HEAD)" # branch > for image in $(docker images | grep myapp | awk '{print $1 ":" $2}' | head -n 4) ; push do docker push $image ; done build tag *type things*

50. the image development lifecycle: docker-builder push build tag > docker-builder build . *type things*

51. teh pipeline docker build server* app app app app *https://github.com/rafecolton/docker-builder

52. conclusion building containers is like writing ruby code:

53. conclusion building containers is like writing ruby code: it’s easy to do it’s hard to do correctly

54. so what did we learn? (or, through what did you sleep?) stuff: • the complexity will come naturally (so don’t force it) • be intentional about your Dockerfile

57. brief epilogue goal: move to linux => all apps (less one) now employing docker/ansible/linux

58. brief epilogue goal: move to linux => all apps (less one) now employing docker/ansible/linux goal: consolidated, pluggable platform => shared monitoring, log aggregation, & load balancing services

59. brief epilogue goal: move to linux => all apps (less one) now employing docker/ansible/linux goal: consolidated, pluggable platform => shared monitoring, log aggregation, & load balancing services goal: push-button provisioning and deployment => it works, minimal magic… and it’s well documented

60. brief epilogue goal: move to linux => all apps (less one) now employing docker/ansible/linux goal: consolidated, pluggable platform => shared monitoring, log aggregation, & load balancing services goal: push-button provisioning and deployment => it works, minimal magic… and it’s well documented could easily be maintained by only two people… dun dun dun

61. brief epilogue I’m job hunting…
