Docker swarm mode vs. Kubernetes Swarm mode provides you with a small-scale but useful orchestration system for Dockerized apps. Apps can run in a decentralized fashion, with no one node being the ...

Jack Wallen shows you how easy it is to manage a Docker Swarm deployment with the Portainer web-based GUI.

Thanks to Swarm, you can put together a reliable cluster of Docker hosts that can dynamically allocate (or remove) extra nodes to meet the resource needs of your containers.

Plus, Docker Swarm is compatible with Portainer, so you’ve got a decent web UI to work with if you’re not fond of complicated terminal commands. Of course, the simple nature of Docker Swarm ...

While Docker Compose is normally used for development and testing, it can also be used for deploying production applications. For the sake of this tutorial, I concentrate on dev-and-test scenarios.

Jack Wallen demonstrates how to attach and remove nodes from clusters in Docker Swarm to scale your services up and down as needed.

Unveiled late last year in Amsterdam, the Docker orchestration services designed to facilitate multi-container distributed apps can now be downloaded.

What Docker has essentially done here is build the core features of Docker Swarm and Compose, its existing clustering and orchestration services which came out of beta last November, right into ...
