Container Fundamentals
Anthony E. Nocentino, Ben Weissman · Apress eBooks · 2021
Containers are changing the way applications are deployed. In this chapter, we will begin with the benefits of container-based application deployment and lay a solid technical foundation of container fundamentals introducing operations such as creating and running containers and persisting data. The chapter will close with the need for container orchestrators and introduce Kubernetes and its benefits. The goal of this chapter is, if you have never seen a container before, to become proficient in container basics before moving on to container orchestration with Kubernetes.
