The document discusses the introduction to Docker and its impact on software development and operations. It explains how Docker containers enable developers to create portable and isolated applications, leading to improved efficiency and consistency in deployment. The presentation also highlights the benefits for both developers and operations teams, as well as the robust Docker community and ecosystem.

5. Solution: Docker containers
5
• Packages up software binaries and dependencies
• Isolates software from each other
• Container is a standard format
• Easily portable across environment
• Allows ecosystem to develop around its standard

6. Docker Basics
Docker Image
The basis of a Docker container
Docker Container
The standard unit in which the application service resides
Docker Engine
Creates, ships and runs Docker containers deployable on physical or virtual
host locally, in a datacenter or cloud service provider
Docker Registry
A registry for image storing and collaboration (on premise or cloud base)

8. Why do Developers Care?
• Build once…(finally) run anywhere
• A clean, safe, hygienic and portable runtime environment for your app.
• Polyglot development: 88% of developers use more than one language (IDC)
• Run each app in its own isolated container, with all it’s dependencies.
• Automate testing, integration, packaging…anything you can script
• Reduce/eliminate concerns about compatibility on different platforms, either your own or
your customers.
• Cheap, zero-penalty containers to deploy services
• All you need is a text editor, git, and Docker

9. Why do Ops Care?
• Configure once…run anything
• Make the entire lifecycle more efficient, consistent, and repeatable
• Increase the quality of code produced by developers
• Eliminate inconsistencies between development, test, production, and customer environments
• Support segregation of duties
• Significantly improves the speed and reliability of continuous deployment and continuous
integration systems
• Because the containers are so lightweight, address significant performance, costs, deployment,
and portability issues normally associated with VMs

11. Docker for DevRel?

12. • Know where your developers are, they’re on Docker
• Build samples for Docker
• Build solutions in Docker
• Easy to distribute images
• Don’t worry about versions
• Build small
Why do DevRel Care?
