๐Ÿš€ Week 7 Recap: Learning in Public โ€“ Mastering Docker & Containerization ๐Ÿš€

This week, I focused on Docker containerization, mastering everything from Docker setup to containerized microservices deployment. I explored real-world use cases, hands-on projects, and CI/CD workflows to automate deployments of Dockerized applications.

๐Ÿ” Key Learnings and Hands-On Implementations:

Docker Containerization & Core Concepts ๐Ÿณ
Docker Setup & Commands: Installed and configured Docker Engine, explored essential Docker CLI commands, and managed containers efficiently.

Docker Logs & Debugging: Worked with docker logs to troubleshoot and monitor container behavior.

Docker Volumes: Explored persistent storage strategies and managed container data with volumes and bind mounts.

Docker Images & Dockerfile:
Built custom Docker images with optimized Dockerfiles.
Used ENTRYPOINT & CMD for flexible container execution.
Created multi-stage Dockerfiles to optimize image size and performance.

Docker Compose & Multi-Container Applications ๐Ÿ”ง
Set up Docker Compose to manage multi-container applications efficiently.

Built microservices-based applications using multiple interconnected services.

Microservices & CI/CD with Docker ๐Ÿš€
CodeCommit, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, and CodePipeline:
Integrated AWS CodeCommit for source code management.

Used CodeBuild to automate image builds and push to Docker Hub.
Deployed Dockerized microservices using CodeDeploy and CodePipeline.

Hands-On Projects:
โœ… Built and deployed microservices-based applications using Docker containers.
โœ… Automated multi-container deployment using Docker Compose & AWS CI/CD tools.
โœ… Optimized Docker images for production-ready containerized applications.

๐Ÿ’ก Key Takeaways:
Containerization simplifies software deployment and scaling.
Docker Compose is essential for managing multi-container applications.

CI/CD pipelines streamline the build and deployment process for containerized applications.

Excited to keep building on this and move deeper into Kubernetes and container orchestration in the coming weeks! ๐Ÿš€
