Crash Course: Containerization in Practice
Mentor: Denis Verveiko, Senior SRE, TeamLead SRE MLOps team / Temabit Fozzy Group.
We invite you to an intensive course on containerization, which combines practice with Docker and building a container ecosystem: from Linux kernel to Open Container Initiative standards and runtime as containerd.
Mentor - Denis Verveiko, TeamLead SRE MLOps, Temabit Fozzy Group.
You will consistently move from basic principles to practical use of containers. First, you will understand how containers work at the system level. Next, how to effectively work with Docker in real tasks. And finally, how to build a system from several containers that interact with each other.
- During the learning process, you will:
- understand how a container works at the Linux kernel level
- learn to work with Docker images and write effective Dockerfiles
- understand how to optimize images and reduce their size
- learn approaches to debugging containers
- learn to build and run a multi-container environment
The course format is a combination of theory and practice. Each block is supported by examples: from working with unshare to understand isolation to containerizing an application and configuring interaction between services via Docker Compose.
- As a result, you will get:
- a clear understanding of how containerization works “under the hood”
- practical skills for working with Docker in everyday tasks
- the ability to independently debug and optimize containers
- tools for quickly raising a local environment
- understanding how to build stable containerized systems
- The knowledge gained can be applied daily:
- to launch applications in an expected environment
- for local development and testing via containers
- to reproduce and analyze problems
- to improve interaction between teams through a single environment
