Introduction

Containers are how software ships now, and the distance between running one and running them well is where the trouble lives. In one day you go from starting, managing and updating containers to docker-compose, networking between containers, and using Docker to speed up your continuous deployment.

Description

Starting with containers was never easier. In this training you will start with the basics of docker: how to start, manage and update containers. After the basics, we will discuss more advanced topics like docker-compose, networking in containers and leveraging Docker to accelerate your continuous deployment. finally, we will be using TestContainers to run your tests in containers using code.
