S. G. Bhat · Apress eBooks · 2021
In the previous chapters, you learned about Docker and its associated terminologies and took a deeper look into how to build Docker images using the Dockerfile. You also learned how to persist data generated by containers and you enabled network communication across the running containers with help of Docker's network features. You then learned how Docker Compose makes it easy to run multi-container applications by writing your requirements in a simple YAML file and providing that as an input to Docker Compose. In this chapter, you learn how to prepare your Docker image to deploy your application in production, including a brief overview of Continuous Integration, and how to set up Continuous Integration with GitHub Actions.
