ABOUT THIS COURSE
If you want to thrive in the modern cloud-first world, you must know Docker. But don’t stress, this course will give you all the necessary skills.
You will learn how to deploy apps with Docker Compose, a key tool for managing multi-container applications running in single-engine mode. You will then move on to Docker Swarm, which will allow you to stand up containers and orchestrate them at scale. Next, you will explore Docker networking, deploying apps with Docker stacks, and some of the industry tools used for keeping Docker secure.
After completing this course, you will be equipped with the knowledge and tools to run Docker at scale, no matter how many containers you have.
