To know about Docker in details, click here. The installation and configuration process is described in our different blog. Click here to access that. Here at linuxnix.com, we have a list of activities to be performed in this Docker series. With these tasks, we will be getting a clear picture on day-to-day docker use and the real-time scenarios we face where we need Docker the most. The lists of the activities are mentioned below: Dockerize a 2-Tier Java application by creating a Docker Image. Push the same Docker Image to Docker Hub. Run a container based version of the Application Database using the Docker-Compose file. Ensure data persistence by mounting the data outside of the containers. In this section, we are going to start the third task. To go through the second task, click here. Running an Application with Database via Docker-Compose In the previous blogs, we took a Java project, created a Dockerfile. Built the image using the Dockerfile, created the container, ran it and verified the running application on the port specified. We took the same image and pushed it to the Docker Hub. In this section, we are going to run a database version of this application and run both the container simultaneously via docker-compose. Docker-Compose...
