Invitation - A developers guide to getting started with Docker

Join us for a free coffee and muffin presentation by Chris Tite, entrepreneur, architect and speaker on Getting Started with Docker. The event will be held at Kaleidocode's offices on 13th June at 8.30am in the morning. 

Docker is a container technology that is creating a lot of buzz in the industry. Unlike virtual machines, containers do not have the high overhead and hence enable more efficient usage of the underlying system and resources. As a software developer, if you are not playing with Docker and realising the power of containers you need to be. Docker is changing the way we work and the way we develop and architect applications. It is also adds an interesting dimension the way we host applications.

Join Chris as he introduces the basic concepts around Docker.

• how containers differ from VMs
• how to setup and run Docker, and running your first container
• persisting data using volumes
• container networking
• developing a simple application and running it in Docker
• an introduction to Docker compose

This talk is a building block for future talks which will cover the ELK Stack and Kubernetes.
