Using Docker for Development and Production with Clayton Hunt

We will meet Tuesday, February 7th, 2017 at The Iron Yard St Pete. Doors will open at 6:30pm and the presentations will begin sharply at 7:00 pm. Along with a great presentation, we'll have food and raffle prizes. Be sure to RSVP so we know how much food is needed.

Using Docker for Development and Production

Docker is an open platform for developers and sysadmins to build, ship, and run distributed applications, whether on laptops, data center VMs, or the cloud.

We are going to explore how we can leverage Docker for use while we develop our applications as well as once we are ready to deploy. We will discuss creating a container that will allow us to work on our .NET Core application in a way that incorporates live rebuilds, debugging, and continuous testing.

Once we have our development environment configured we will turn our attention to deployment. The reasons we would want to use Docker in production are plentiful. Benefits include but are not limited to application scalability and consistency in deployment configuration across environments.
