Why Docker

Docker is Kernel Virtualization

Docker:
Ephemeral, Isomorphic Hardware

Each copy is identical
Don't upgrade, replace
Many instances from one file

Dockerfile: Configuration as Code

FROM microsoft/aspnetcore:2.0

WORKDIR /app
COPY . .
RUN nuget install

EXPOSE 80
CMD ["dotnet", "run"]

Small text file produces identical results

Can cache previous results to speed builds

Docker: Dev & Ops Communication

Inside the Container:

A machine
Unique IP, hostname
Build your perfect snowflake

Outside the Container:

A process
Plug in power and internet
Restart quickly
Scale by launching more
