Kubernetes is a powerful orchestration technology for deploying, scaling and managing distributed applications and it has taken the industry by storm over the past few years. However, due to its inherent complexity, relatively few enterprises have been able to realize the full value of Kubernetes; with 96% of enterprise IT organizations unable to manage Kubernetes on their own. At Docker, we recognize that much of Kubernetes’ perceived complexity stems from a lack of intuitive security and manageability configurations that most enterprises expect and require for production-grade software.

Docker Kubernetes Service (DKS) is a Certified Kubernetes distribution that is included with Docker Enterprise 3.0 and is designed to solve this fundamental challenge. It’s the only offering that integrates Kubernetes from the developer desktop to production servers, with ‘sensible secure defaults’ out-of-the-box. Simply put, DKS makes Kubernetes easy to use and more secure for the entire organization. Here are three things that DKS does to simplify (and accelerate) Kubernetes adoption for the enterprise:
Consistent, seamless Kubernetes experience for developers and operators
DKS is the only Kubernetes offering that provides consistency across the full development lifecycle from local desktops to servers. Through the use of Version Packs, developers’ Kubernetes environments running in Docker Desktop Enterprise stay in sync with production environments for a complete, seamless Kubernetes experience. With a quarterly release cycle for Kubernetes and new APIs getting added every release, different environments may end up running different versions of Docker and Kubernetes. Developers can switch between version packs with a single click to stay aligned to different resulting environments.
Streamlined Kubernetes lifecyle management ( Day 1 and Day 2 operations)
New cluster management tools enable operations teams to easily deploy, scale, backup and restore and upgrade a certified Kubernetes environment using a set of simple CLI commands. This delivers an automated way to install and configure Kubernetes applications across hybrid and multi-cloud deployment, including AWS, Azure, or VMware.

Enhanced security with ‘sensible defaults’
DKS comes hardened with “sensible defaults” that enterprises expect and require for production-level deployments. These include out-of-the-box configurations for security, encryption, access control, and lifecycle management — all without having to become a Kubernetes expert. DKS also allows organizations to integrate their existing LDAP and SAML-based authentication solutions with Kubernetes RBAC for simple multi-tenancy.

5 Reasons to Containerize Production Windows Apps on Docker Enterprise

We started working with Microsoft five years ago to containerize Windows Server applications. Today, many of our enterprise customers run Windows containers in production. We’ve seen customers containerize everything from 15 year old Windows .NET 1.1 applications to new ASP.NET applications.

If you haven’t started containerizing Windows applications and running them in production, here are five great reasons to get started:
1. It’s time to retire Windows Server 2008
Extended Support ends in January 2020. Rewriting hundreds of legacy applications to run on Windows Server 2016 or 2019 is a ridiculously expensive and time-consuming headache, so you’ll need to find a better way — and that’s Docker Enterprise.
2. It’s much easier than you think to containerize legacy Windows apps
You can containerize legacy Windows applications with Docker Enterprise without needing to rewrite them. Once containerized, these applications are easier to modernize and extend with new services.
3. Both Swarm and Kubernetes will support Windows nodes
The recently announced Kubernetes 1.14 includes support for Windows nodes. With Docker Enterprise, you will soon be able to use either orchestrator to run Windows nodes.
4. Your Windows apps become fully portable to the cloud
Once you containerize your Windows applications, it’s easy to migrate them to almost any cloud. With Docker Enterprise, applications are fully portable.
5. You’re in good company
Hundreds of enterprises now run Windows container nodes in production. Last fall, we talked about how GE Digital, Jabil and the largest bank in Italy have containerized Windows Server applications. Two of the world’s top ten bio-pharmaceutical companies and one of the largest manufacturers now run production Windows containers on Docker Enterprise.
At DockerCon Barcelona 2018 and DockerCon 2019, we heard from several other customers about how they use Docker Enterprise to containerize Windows applications:

Quicken Loans, a $3 billion home mortgage lender, is rolling out the Docker Enterprise container platform to support hundreds of Windows applications. Docker Captain Tommy Hamilton, who works at Quicken Loans, shared his advice on how to successfully containerize Windows applications at DockerCon this year.
Mitchell International, a software company in the auto insurance industry, is containerizing over 400 Windows .NET and IIS applications with Docker Enterprise. Marius Dornean, Director of R&D at Mitchell International, explains how they modernized .NET applications in his DockerCon session.
Entergy, a large utility company headquartered in New Orleans, is modernizing its infrastructure and reducing security exposure by containerizing over 500 Windows 2000, 2003 and 2008 applications.
Mizuho Financial Group, an international financial services firm with over $1.9 trillion in assets, modernized its JVM-based internal service bus by containerizing Windows Server applications on Docker Enterprise.
Tele2, a Dutch telecom company, has containerized over 500 legacy applications, including .NET, Magento and Jenkins. Application updates that used to take 3+ days to deploy now take minutes, and the company saw a significant increase in customer satisfaction metrics within 6 months.

If you’re thinking about containerizing old or new Windows applications, there’s never been a better time to do it.

What’s in a Container Platform?

Fresh off the heels of DockerCon and the announcement of Docker Enterprise 3.0, an end-to-end and dev-to-cloud container platform, I wanted to share some thoughts on what we mean when we say “complete container platform”.

Choice and Flexibility
A complete solution has to meet the needs of different kinds of applications and users – not just cloud native projects but legacy and brownfield applications on both Linux and Windows, too. At a high level, one of the goals of modernization – the leading reason organizations are adopting container platforms – is to rid ourselves of technical debt. Organizations want the freedom to create their apps based on the “right” stack and running in the “right” place, even though what’s “right” may vary from app to app. So the container platform running those applications should be flexible and open to support those needs, rather than rigidly tying application teams to a single OS or virtualization and cloud model.
High-Velocity Innovation
To deliver high velocity innovation your developers are a key constituent for the container platform. That means the container platform should extend to their environment, so that developers are building and testing on the same APIs that will be used in production environments.

.
Your platform of choice should have tools that integrate into your developers’ preferred workflow, rather than forcing a new or different tool or completely new workflow on them that only works for one deployment pattern. Developers are hired for their creative ability to solve problems with code so adopting a platform that requires your teams to abandon their intuition and prior knowledge in favor of tools that only work with one prescriptive methodology not only slows down innovation, it also increases the risk of developers going outside the IT-approved processes to get the job done.

Operations teams also want to run a platform that enables applications to be deployed faster. That means making complex tasks simpler from day one with the assurance that the platform will work as expected, while still allowing them to grow their skills over time. The number true Kubernetes experts is relatively small, so if your platform of choice requires admins and operators to know Kubernetes on day one, in addition to learning the ins and outs of the container platform itself, you’re easily looking at 12 months or more of training, services, and proof of concept trials and errors before your container platform is ready for its first “real” workload.
In addition, Kubernetes is a trusted orchestrator and the Docker Engine, built on the CNCF-graduated containerd project, is a trusted and widely used container runtime. Your container platform should be built on these fundamental components because this will give you the most flexibility in the future. Docker Enterprise and all the major public clouds use Kubernetes and the Docker engine (in some cases containerd) because they are open and mature. If your container platform vendor says they’ve built their own projects which are “mostly compatible” with one or both of these then you might want to take note.
Operations teams are also interested in stability. Container platforms will get frequent updates but that does not mean you should be required to rip and replace your container platform every two years, and along with it all the skills, scripts, and other tooling your operations teams built up around the platform over time. When we added Kubernetes in Docker Enterprise 2.0 it was a major upgrade, but we made that upgrade as simple as possible, including continuing to provide and develop Docker Swarm. If you are evaluating container platforms, look at their history. It’s a relatively new market. If you see three major platform architecture redesigns which all forced a major operations shift, you might be in for a bumpy ride in the future.
Intrinsic Security
Last, but absolutely not least, security has to be built-in at all layers of the platform. With the push for more frequent and faster software releases, security has to be part of both the developer’s experience and the operator’s experience. But security cannot be so restrictive or obtrusive that nobody wants to use the platform. You should have guardrails that help developers get started quickly from known good foundations, shifting left in your security process instead of finding out later that something is broken. And your platform should give you visibility into every application you ship: Windows or Linux, Edge or data centers. Security must be a fundamental building block of your container platform and that includes security for your running applications, too.

In Summary
We were proud that Docker was named a Leader in The Forrester New Wave for Enterprise Container Platform Software Suites in Q4 2018. We believe that our 3.0 platform adds even greater capabilities in a non-disruptive fashion and is the only end-to-end platform for building, sharing and running container-based applications, from the developer’s desktop to the cloud and managing the entire application lifecycle at every stage without dependencies based on a particular OS version, virtualization platform, or public cloud stack.

Enterprise Solution Offerings: Ensuring Success Across Your Entire Application Portfolio

This week at DockerCon 2019, we shared our strategy for helping companies realize the benefits of digital transformation through new enterprise solution offerings that address the most common application profile in their portfolio. Our new enterprise solution offerings include the Docker platform, new tooling and services needed to migrate your applications. Building on the success and the experience from the Modernize Traditional Applications (MTA) program and Docker Enterprise 3.0, we are excited to expand our solutions and play an even greater role in our customers’ innovation strategy by offering a complete and comprehensive path to application containerization.
Application Profiles
When you hear about different application profiles, you may think about different languages or frameworks or even different application architectures like microservices and monoliths. But one of the benefits of containerization is that all application dependencies are abstracted away and what you have is a container that can be deployed consistently across different infrastructure.
In our work with many enterprise organizations, we’ve validated that the successful adoption of a container strategy is just as much about the people and processes as it is about the technology. There are 3 behavioral patterns that matter and that is dependent on what you want to accomplish with containers:

Modernizing brownfield applications are a great way to begin your container journey because they tend to receive a lot of attention inside the organization. These are applications that are under active development but are based on existing code bases. In other words, there are both developers AND operators that are actively supporting these applications. Modernizing these applications typically involves containerizing the existing application and making modifications like the addition of microservices to make them more agile or integrated with other systems.
Accelerating greenfield applications of any architecture involves arming your developers with the tools and practices to build and ship production-ready applications. New apps can be cloud-native and microservices, but they can also be n-tier applications or even monoliths. The key is to accelerate developer productivity and remove any friction in the process.
Replatforming legacy applications is a practical way to extend the life of existing applications while making them more portable and easier to operate. Containerizing these legacy applications also delivers significant cost savings for organizations through increased CPU utilization and server consolidation.

Proven Methodology
Docker’s solution offerings are based on a proven, outcomes-based methodology that takes into account an organization’s unique characteristics. It’s a comprehensive approach based on 4 workstreams – Governance, Pipeline, Platform and Applications. The aim of these workstreams is to establish and operationalize the Docker Enterprise platform for your applications in production – no matter which application profile.

Governance: Ensures that the team is organized, equipped and enabled to deliver and support Docker Enterprise for the on-boarding of applications to the platform
Platform: Activities in which the team defines, deploys, integrates and operates the Docker Enterprise platform
Pipeline: Activities in which the team defines, deploys, integrates, and operates the CI/CD delivery pipeline which builds and deploys applications to run on the Docker Enterprise platform
Applications: Activities in which the team defines, migrates, deploys, and operates workloads to run on the Docker Enterprise Platform; this workstream is repeated per application at scale in an on-boarding process.

Build a Path to Success
Every organization is faced with the challenge of digital transformation, but there are many different paths you can take, depending on your organization’s priorities – and sometimes what projects are getting funded.
If you are not sure where to start, our experience is that starting with your brownfield applications will deliver the most immediate value back to your organization. From there, we can work with you to identify the next batch of applications to containerize. Here is one recommended path forward:

Summary
Docker Customer Success aims to accelerate our customers’ adoption of containerization. We are excited to share our new solutions offerings based on Docker Enterprise 3.0 and look forward to working with your organization to deliver on your digital transformation objectives.

2019 Customer Innovation awards: 6 Stories of Transformation in the Enterprise

We are thrilled to honor six of our enterprise customers with the 2019 Docker Customer Innovation Award today at DockerCon. We launched the awards last year to recognize customers who stand out for how they are using Docker Enterprise to drive transformation within IT and their business.
These are companies ranging from cruise lines to established “brick and mortar” enterprises, some of whom have been in business for well over 100 years. These are their stories.
Creating Exceptional Experiences: Carnival Corporation

Carnival’s first commitment is to creating fun, memorable and safe experiences for its guests. As the largest cruise line in the world, Carnival hosts over 12 million customers annually on 110 ships and at 15 resorts. Technology plays a key role in providing a world-class consistent customer experience.
Carnival leverages Docker Enterprise to build, run and update over 300 services on its new Medallion System, a necklace or wrist band IoT token unique to each passenger used to pay for drinks or as a key to your room. Adding or changes services, or testing new ones, is easy with the Docker Enterprise platform. The system is running on two ships today, with plans to expand this year to six more ships.

Culture Transformation Award: Citizens Bank

Home mortgages call to mind endless paperwork, not digital innovation. The Citizens Bank mortgage division established an innovation team to challenge the core assumption that the bank had to move slowly and carefully when it changed or added any services.
Rapid innovation supported by Docker Enterprise now allows the team to “fail fearlessly” and take new ideas from concept to running in a week — without putting the bank at risk. Before Docker, the team only managed a few software deployments a week. Today, they average over 200 deployments daily and run over 2,000 containers.
Digital Transformation: Liberty Mutual

What do you do if you have 106 years of accumulated technical debt but need to evolve and offer new digital services to remain competitive? Liberty Mutual started its digital transformation journey in 2016 by changing the way it builds software, using Docker Enterprise as the catalyst.
Through the company’s partnership with Docker, Liberty Mutual has been able to modernize traditional applications, and move these to the cloud in a more automated, portable, and cost-effective way, as well as enable new teams to write modern services quickly building on from open technologies.
“Docker has been a transformational technology. It helped us dissolve our previous assumptions about how app development, operations and security could be done.”

Mark Cressey, SVP & GM, Hosting Services

Global Impact: Lindsay Corporation

Lindsay started out as an industrial agricultural equipment manufacturer in the 1950s. Even ten years ago, their primary product was steel-based sprinkler systems for farms. Today, Linday is an IoT company that delivers value to customers through sophisticated software and sensors.
Core to Lindsay’s mission — feeding the world’s growing population in the most sustainable way possible. That means using its software to make intelligent decisions about watering crops, increasing yields and saving 700 billion gallons of water in the process. Docker Enterprise helps Lindsay build, test and deliver new capabilities to farmers rapidly.
“Whether it’s feeding 10 billion people by 2050 or helping to conserve the water resources that we have on earth, with our new architecture based on Docker Enterprise, the sky is really the limit.” — Brian Magnusson, VP Technology and Innovation
CIO of the Year: Nationwide

In 2014, it took three years to complete a software project at Nationwide — far too long to keep up with the rapid shift to digital. Even a simple software deployment took a week. IT undertook an initiative to turn that on its head.
Fast forward to today and a software deployment at Nationwide takes an hour, a 100x improvement. Critical applications in the Life, Property & Casualty and Claims business units have been containerized with Docker Enterprise. The company estimated it already saves $2 million a year in application costs. The company has a “container first” strategy and plans to migrate all existing apps to containers by 2021.
Operating at Scale: Visa

Visa processed $11 trillion in transactions in over 160 currencies last year. How does the world’s largest payment company scale to 65,000+ transactions a second?
By containerizing two critical payment services on Docker Enterprise, Visa achieved a 10x increase in scalability and handled over 100 million transactions on Black Friday. It can scale rapidly from 100 to 800 containers to meet demand, while maintaining efficient infrastructure utilization.
We’re pleased to recognize these six customer with the 2019 Docker Customer Innovation Award.

Announcing Docker Enterprise 3.0: Delivering High-Velocity Application Innovation

Today at DockerCon, we’re excited to announce Docker Enterprise 3.0 – the only desktop-to-cloud enterprise container platform enabling organizations to build and share any application and securely run them anywhere – from hybrid cloud to the edge.

With Docker Enterprise 3.0, developers can rapidly build multi-service container-based applications right from their desktop and package them in a standardized format that can be shared seamlessly and run anywhere. In addition, Docker Enterprise 3.0 expands its container platform leadership position with the introduction of new capabilities for automated lifecycle management and enhanced security.
Here are some of the highlights that you can look forward to in Docker Enterprise 3.0.
Accelerated application delivery
Enterprises are looking for ways to quickly adapt to new competitive challenges and changing customer requirements through the introduction of new applications. Docker Enterprise 3.0 introduces a number of capabilities that help organizations accelerate application delivery.
Docker Desktop Enterprise

Docker Desktop Enterprise is a new developer tool that extends the Docker Enterprise Platform to developers’ desktops, improving developer productivity while accelerating time-to-market for new applications.

Application Designer interface: template-based workflows for creating containerized applications – no Docker CLI commands are required to get started
Configurable version packs: instantly replicate production environment configurations on the local desktop to avoid “works on my machine” friction
Centrally managed and secured: Packaged as a standard MSI (Win) and PKG (Mac) distribution files that work with existing endpoint management tools
Automation and template-driven generation of IT-approved Dockerfiles, Docker Compose files, and CI pipelines boosts developer productivity

Docker Application

Docker Application is a new set of tooling that enables end-to-end application consistency and scalability from developers to operators. It allows users to manage complex applications as simply as individual containers, with tools to build, push, and deploy multi-container applications as self-contained objects.

Based on open standard CNAB: Docker Application is based on CNAB – a joint collaboration of Docker, Microsoft, Bitnami, HashiCorp and CodeFresh
Docker Application Template: Make sharing and standardization of applications simpler and more scalable by templatizing applications and their deployment parameters.
Docker Assemble: Easily generate Dockerfiles and the associated files for common application frameworks without expert Docker knowledge. Get development up to speed faster by letting developers focus on their business logic.

Docker Kubernetes Service (DKS)
Docker Enterprise 3.0 introduces Docker Kubernetes Service – the only offering that integrates Kubernetes from the developer desktop to production servers. This will make Kubernetes easier, more secure, and more accessible to the entire organization.

Shipping with Kubernetes 1.14: DKS includes the latest release of Kubernetes, including full support for Container Storage Interface (CSI).
Single platform for developers and operators: DKS is the only Kubernetes offering that provides consistency across the full development lifecycle. Through the use of version packs, Kubernetes developer environments stay in sync with production environments for a complete, seamless Kubernetes experience.

Automated deployment of containers on your choice of infrastructure
Docker Enterprise 3.0 includes new lifecycle automation tools for day 1 and day 2 operations, helping customers accelerate and expand the deployment of containers on their choice of infrastructure.

Transparent cluster upgrades: Apply blue-green upgrades to your container infrastructure to reduce and eliminate application impact. Control your infra software lifecycle with more control and less risk.
Docker Cluster: Automate and simplify cluster deployments no matter which environment. Whether AWS, Azure, or VMware, Docker Enterprise deploys in highly customizable ways that allow operators to scale the number of clusters and different environments that they support.

Enhanced security
Docker Enterprise 3.0 includes additional security enhancements that expand the set of applications that can be addressed with Docker Enterprise and the types of organizations that can deploy it.

Group Managed Service Accounts (gMSA) for Swarm: Support for gMSA brings Docker Enterprise to a wider set of Windows Server applications that require Active Directory authentication. Swarm allows the creation of credential specs with Docker Configs to bring ease of use and automation to gMSA.
PKI Certificate-Based Authentication: In addition to LDAP/AD integration and SAML 2.0 support, highly regulated organizations can now use PKI authentication to control access to Docker Enterprise.
