Comparing how different container orchestration tools scale to production
Submitted Jan 23, 2016
Section:
Workshop
Technical level:
Intermediate
To setup and understand scaling pratices of various Docker Orchestration tools
Outline
In this workshop we’ll learn how to setup and benchmark different container orchestration tools. We’ll take a real world example of a web application with database backend. We will setup a few contianer orchestration tools including Docker compose and swarm, Kubernetes and Mesos and see how they build and scale containers to meet ever-increasing traffic.
Outline of the content:
- Building docker image(s) which will be deployed - 30 minutes
- Deploying the images manually and agreeing that it is a bad idea - 10 minutes
- Understanding and deploying single instance via Docker compose - 20 minutes
- Understanding and scaling via Docker Swarm - 20 minutes
- Understanding, deploying and scaling via Kubernetes - 30 minutes
- Debate: Kubernetes vs native Docker tools - 5 minutes
- Understanding, deploying and scaling via Mesos-Marathon - 30 minutes
- Debate: Mesos-Marathon vs Kubernetes - 5 minutes
- Debate: What should we use in what situations? - 10 minutes
Total Duration: 3 Hours
Requirements
Primary goal of the workshop is to gain hands-on experience on various Docker orchestration systems and then have an educated debate on what orchestration systems would fit a given environment. So audience for the workshop should have hands-on experience on deploying and managing applications, but not necessarily containerized. We will containerize an application as a part of the workshop itself.
Additionally, audience should have basic hands-on experience on running following three commands:
- docker run
- docker ps
- docker images
Audience would also need:
- Internet
- Laptop with Linux and a fresh running Linux virtual machine Or a Laptop with two Linux vitual machines, preferably Centos.
