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.

Transforming a 15+ Year Old Semiconductor Manufacturing Environment
More on Jeanie’s session here.
 

Jeanie Schwenk
Engineer, Scrum Master and Agile Project Manager at Jireh Semiconductor

What is your breakout about?
I was just starting to look at Docker at this time last year. Our company’s transformation journey hasn’t been a straightforward one, and we haven’t reached our final destination, yet, but we are well on our way. We started with numerous legacy software applications running on HP 9000 servers, which were new in 2001. Now, one by one, we’re moving over 230 applications that run the semiconductor factory into Docker containers.
Why should people go to your session?
You’re not alone in the problems you face in transitioning legacy application and legacy development processes. The chance to share and learn together – our roadblocks, solutions, and ideas – will help all of us have more impact.
What are you looking forward to the most at this DockerCon?
For me personally, the networking and learning opportunities are the draw. Being able to share our story and encourage others facing similar challenges is a rare opportunity.

CMD and Conquer: Containerizing the Monolith
More on Tony and Nelson’s session here.

Tony Lee
Software Engineer at Splunk

Nelson Wang
Sr Software Engineer at Splunk

What is your breakout about?
It is about Splunk’s journey to containerize its own on-prem software with tons of pre- and post-installation configurations. We’re going to discuss the strategy behind Splunk’s official Docker image, and how we captured some of the paradigms behind software containerization for the benefit of both external customers and internal engineering efforts.
 
Why should people attend your session?
“Migrating monolithic systems into a system of microservices is a simple, straightforward task” – No one ever.
 
Any journey that involves fundamentally changing the design of a software’s architecture will never be without some pain. Often times, it is a costly and expensive endeavor, and the full benefits cannot be reaped until the very end. At Splunk, the Infrastructure team took on the onerous task of figuring out how to make this transition more harmonious, bridging the gap between two different ideologies.
What are you looking forward to the most at this DockerCon?
Speaking and learning about how others use containers in their daily operation.
What is your favorite Docker Hub repo?
Obviously our own Splunk Docker Hub repo. Besides that, we enjoy using containerized nginx, MongoDB, and Redis.

Towards Reproducible Climate Research
More on Aparna’s session here.
 

Aparna Radhakrishnan
Software Development Engineer at Engility

What is your breakout about?
We will draw a path towards reproducible research using Docker containers for massive data publishing and analytics. The scale and magnitude of computing and data have proven to increase significantly in the last decade, thus making data delivery methods to the world a herculean research problem by itself. In the case of NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration), this world of evolving responses with respect to climate creates an avalanche of effects in various sectors – agriculture, health, GDP, etc.  We will discuss some of the pioneering efforts from collaborators from other laboratories and organizations (such as ESGF, Google, NASA JPL, Columbia University, PMEL, etc.) in the area of Docker containers in computing and analysis on and off the cloud.
Why should people go to your session?
Although climate research is an entirely different theme, Docker is in use even here. Anyone that wonders what Docker is capable of should attend. Whether its inspiration-driven research or industrial-driven research, Dockers are relevant. I am not a Docker guru, but I could do it and so can you!
What are you looking forward to the most at this DockerCon?
Women speakers and the city of San Francisco!

Modern Orchestrated IT for Enterprise CMS: A Case Study for Wiley Education Services
Learn more about Jesse and Blaine’s session here.

Blaine Helmick
Senior Manager, System Engineering at Wiley

Jesse Antoszyk
Solutions Architect at BoxBoat

What is your breakout about?
Jesse: We’re going to be talking about making Wiley Education Services successful running their CMS on Docker and Swarm! The journey and the end result are pretty compelling.
Blaine: Jesse teed this up perfectly. It’s all about the “hero’s journey” where we triumph over the mediocrity of single-purpose virtual machines.
Why should people go to your session?
Blaine: Would it be too absurd to abstract some Shakespeare?
“To containerize, or not to containerize that is the question: Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer the downtime and broken code of outrageous software, or to take countermeasures against a sea of denial of services attacks And by mitigating the traffic end them? To server 500: to fail; No more; We Docker.”
Ok, maybe that’s a little over the top.
Jesse: The journey to containerization extends beyond tech, it’s a shift in thinking. Implement containers, and implement CI/CD, but don’t forget to adopt the DevOps mentality to support them. Doing these things will allow you to focus on creating better products faster. Anyone interested in learning how we went from zero to Docker, the challenges we faced and solutions we came up with, will get a lot out of this session. We’re going to give a peek into the organizational and technical aspects of containerizing CMS at WES.
What are you looking forward to the most at this DockerCon?
Jesse: Hard to pick. I’m really stoked for most of the black belt talks. Speaking at DockerCon is pretty exciting as well!
Blaine: Last year I walked out quoting the “Pets versus Crops” metaphor – I switched it up from “Pets versus Cattle” to be more animal friendly I’m excited just thinking about what I’ll walk out of DCSF ’19 quoting.

Thank you to all our presenters and see you at DockerCon!

Not Your First DockerCon? Join Docker Pals As A Guide

The Docker Pals program matches groups of attendees who are newer to DockerCon (the “Pals”) with an attendee who has been to one or more DockerCons (the “Guide”). Our goal is to help everyone at DockerCon feel comfortable and see what this amazing community has to offer. Both Pals and Guides find the experience rewarding! The first step in being a Guide is registering for DockerCon so if you haven’t yet, register here now!

Here’s what some of our Guides have said about the program:
“Conferences can be lonely if you don’t know anyone, or are the only person from your company. Docker Pals provides stress free opportunity to connect with people and get to know them.”    
 
“A fantastic experience to meet new people and help them to enjoy DockerCon as much as I do.”
 
“It was great meeting the Pals assigned to me. For me it was interesting to learn about the different people and use cases. I also enjoyed walking everyone through the vendor area explaining all the technologies.”
 
“Last DockerCon was my third in a row and the third time I’ve been involved with Docker Pals as a Guide. Each time it gets better. Pals and Guides are awesome! So much fun and good energy! You learn as much as you share! Don’t stay alone, join us! This is an experience you won’t forget!”
 
This year we are thrilled to see more interest in the program. More interest means a need for more Guides than ever before!

Feature Friday: A Chat With Security Experts

DockerCon brings industry leaders and experts of the container world to one event where they share their knowledge, experience and guidance. This year is no different. For the next few weeks, we’re going to highlight a few of our amazing speakers and the talks they will be leading.

In this second highlight, we have several industry experts on container and application security that we’re excited to have sharing their knowledge at DockerCon. We’re going to have sessions covering network security, a dissection of a real world Kubernetes vulnerability (and what to do about it), encrypted containers, and the new AWS Firecracker “micro-VM” for containers, just to name a few.
In case you missed it, you can also see our first speaker highlight here, featuring storage, service mesh and networking experts.
 
Zero Trust Networks Come to Docker Enterprise Kubernetes
More on their session here.
 

Spike Curtis 
Tigera Software Developer

Brent Salisbury 
Docker Technical Alliances

What is your breakout about?
Brent: Docker Enterprise with Calico for networking being used in conjunction with Istio is an exciting intersection of securing various layers of networking – all from a single policy interface.
Spike: The Docker-Calico-Istio combination gives you some amazing tools out of the box for securing your application’s network connectivity. The breakout is about showing you how to use them!
Why should people go to your session?
Spike: Networks are super important to every application, but getting the security right is intimidating, so people often leave it until it’s too late. This talk should lower that intimidation factor and give some concrete steps to take to get your network secured from the get-go.
What is your favorite DockerCon moment?
Spike: I think it was standing at the Calico booth at the very first DockerCon. The booth was in the hallway to the main auditorium, so literally everyone had to walk past and you could just see the crowds and fee the excitement. We knew the opportunity was huge.
What are you looking forward to the most at this DockerCon?
Spike: I always really enjoy talks by Michelle Noorali, so looking forward to hearing her speak.
Brent: I am very excited to see the opportunity of having cross-platform capabilities, particularly the coming parity between Windows and Linux.

Crafty Requests: Deep Dive into a Kubernetes CVE
More on Ian’s session here.

Ian Coldwater
Heroku Platform Security Engineer (& Kubernetes Breaker)

What is your breakout about?
I’m going to be doing a deep dive into one of the most serious Kubernetes security vulnerabilities discovered thus far (CVE 2018-1002105), which was all over the news and affected countless clusters. I’ll be diving into how this vulnerability works, which also helps explain the inner workings of Kubernetes itself, and then I’ll talk about how to use this knowledge to secure Kubernetes and mitigate against future security risks.
Why should people go to your session?
This will be a good session for people with different kinds of expertise. For someone who knows a good bit about security but maybe less about containers and Kubernetes, this session will give them a good idea of how Kubernetes works on the back end and how flaws like this can happen. For people who are more familiar with Docker and Kubernetes, this will give them a better understanding of how they can protect their clusters against this vulnerability and others like it.
I think this vulnerability is fascinating and instructive, and we can all learn something from it. Also, live exploit demos are fun.
What are you looking forward to the most at this DockerCon?
This is my first DockerCon so I’m really excited to go this year! I’m looking forward to connecting with and learning from other people who have the same interests.

Enabling High Assurance/Sensitive Container Workloads with Encrypted Images
More on Justin’s session here.

Justin Cormack
Docker Sr. Software Engineer – Security

What is your breakout about?
I am doing a talk with Brandon Lum from IBM about encrypting container images, a project we have been working on for a while now. For many use cases, keeping containers behind access control in the registry is fine, but there are other use cases where you want containers encrypted from build to when they are run. We will demo the integration into containerd, which will later make its way into Docker and Kubernetes. This is a great example of the community working together to add new features.
Also I will be involved in the open source security summit, where we have sessions on supply chain security, bug bounties in the container ecosystem and policy management.
What is your favorite DockerCon moment?
I love it when people launch their new products at DockerCon – in 2014 Google launched some little project called “Kubernetes” there…
What are you looking forward to the most at this DockerCon?
We have a big open source track again this year, which is great, there are lots of exciting community projects. Also excited for some of the announcements!

Deep Dive into Firecracker-Containerd
Learn more about Samuel’s session here.

Samuel Karp
Amazon Web Services Sr. Software Development Engineer

What is your breakout about?
I’ll be talking about how we’re integrating the Firecracker virtual machine manager (VMM),  which is optimized for lightweight, container-like “micro”-VMs, with containerd to make it easier to run containers with the isolation provided by a hypervisor.
Why should people go to your session?
I’m hoping that anyone interested in hypervisor-mediated isolation and using containers will find my session interesting! This session dives deep into the architecture of the firecracker-containerd project, which aims to allow portability between standard OCI container images and the larger container ecosystem with Firecracker micro-VMs.
What are you looking forward to the most at this DockerCon?
I’m looking forward to connecting with people who have use-cases for hypervisor isolation or who are interested in working with us on bringing the project along.  I’m also interested in talking to anyone who uses containers on AWS about their journey and what they’d like to see from AWS in the future.

Thank you all our presenters and see you at DockerCon!
