“Containers 101”
By Sergio Puas, Senior Software Engineer
How many times, when deploying our code in QA or Production, we have heard this: “But it works on my machine!” How often you have spent too much time and effort configuring your environment, installing libraries, etc.? Quite often? Then this presentation is for you!
The presentation will be an introduction to containers, focusing on one of the most popular tools of late - Docker. We will see how to run a simple infrastructure based on containers, using a REST API connecting to a database, and a reverse proxy as an example.
