A Cloud Guru - Docker Fundamentals

The Docker tutorial that will have you Dockerizing your own apps in 5 hours or less

Docker Offers a Better Way to Build and Distribute Your Applications

This course is meant for anyone looking to improve the way they build and distribute applications. You could be a web developer, sysadmin, operations manager, or someone who is part of an IT / testing / QA team.

Developers use Docker to set up and run applications without the headache of having to install everything manually
Operators use Docker to distribute applications across environments consistently and optimize server resources
Enterprises use Docker to build agile software delivery pipelines to ship new features faster, more securely, and with confidence to both Linux and Windows servers.

By the time you finish this course you'll know everything you need to start using Docker on your own applications.

It doesn't matter if you use Ruby on Rails, NodeJS, Flask, Django, Java, Golang or any other language / framework. At the end of the day, Docker is a toolset that helps you package up and distribute your applications in a portable and repeatable way. You'll be able to set up entire development environments in a single command and run those same applications exactly the same in production with total confidence that it will work because you're just moving around special packages that Docker creates for you under the hood.

The days of "well it works for me!" or having to point another developer to a 20 page document on how to set up your web application are long over. Docker fixes those problems and so much more.

No prior Docker knowledge is necessary to take this course. We'll go all the way from "What is Docker?" to exploring what types of problems Docker solves to completely mastering Docker's core features. I'm a big fan of learning by doing so this course has just enough theory combined with over 30+ guided labs and challenges. This way you'll learn both the "why" and the "how".

Save your time and sanity! Instead of sifting through 100+ scattered blog posts, Docker Fundamentals lays everything out on a silver platter. I've done years of research and testing so you don't have to. All you have to do is sit back, relax and follow along with the videos. You're only a few short hours away from mastering Docker and applying it to your own applications.
