Join Docker This Month at KubeCon and the Cloud Engineering Summit

Two cloud-related conferences are coming up this month, and Docker will have speakers at both. First up, Docker CTO Justin Cormack will present at KubeCon next week. The week after that Peter McKee, Docker’s head of Developer Relations, will speak at  Pulumi Cloud Engineering Summit.

At KubeCon, Justin and co-presenter Steve Lasker of Microsoft will speak on the topic of tooling for supply chain security with special reference to the Notary project. They’ll also look at the future roadmap and the supply chain landscape. KubeCon, the flagship conference of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation, is geared toward adopters and technologists from leading open source and cloud native communities. The conference runs Oct. 11 – 15 in Los Angeles and virtually. Justin’s presentation, titled Notary: State of the Container Supply Chain, takes place Thursday, Oct. 14 at 4:30 p.m. – 5:05 p.m. Pacific.

At the Cloud Engineering Summit, Peter will team up with Uffizzi’s Josh Thurman to speak about Continuous Previews — a cousin of Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployments that allows developers to easily share new features and changes to a wide audience within their organization, thereby speeding the delivery of features to users. The Wednesday, Oct. 20 summit is a virtual day of learning for cloud practitioners that focuses on best practices for building, deploying and managing modern cloud infrastructure. Peter’s presentation, titled Continuous Previews: Using Infrastructure as Code to Continuously Share and Preview Your Application, takes place at 3:00 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. Pacific.

Docker Index Shows Momentum in Developer Community Activity

The latest edition of the Docker Index is in, and it shows a continued growth in activity across the Docker community. The momentum we are seeing since the last Docker Index in February 2021 edition continues to grow.

You’ll recall that we started publishing the Docker Index in early 2020 as a way to provide insight into trends in application development, mining anonymized data from millions of Docker users. Every time we’ve published the Docker Index since then (this is our fourth Docker Index post), we’ve been amazed at the findings. 

As of Aug. 31, 2021, there’s been a total of 396 billion all-time pulls on Docker Hub — up from 318 billion just six months ago and an increase of about 25% year-over-year. In addition, there were 42 billion Docker Hub Pulls in the second quarter of 2021 (calendar year), up from 30 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020, likely reflecting a continued accelerating demand for more applications as the pandemic shutdown accelerated businesses’ digital transformation efforts. Docker Trusted Content — including Docker Official Images, Docker Verified Publisher content and Docker-sponsored Open Source projects — is available at all Docker subscription levels.

These increases paint a clear picture of collaborative application development platforms as the foundation for developers who want to build, share and run modern apps.

The numbers are up across the board. The number of application container image repositories on Docker Hub reached 12.5 million, up from 8.3 million in our February Index, and representing a more than 50% year-over-year increase in the application components that developers rely on to build apps.

There are now 9 million Docker Hub accounts, up about 30% year-over-year. Docker Desktop installations have risen to 4.7 million from 3.3 million in February this year, and Docker Desktop downloads stand at 11.9 million.

Meanwhile, according to the 2021 Stack Overflow Developer Survey, based on a survey of over 83,000 software developers, Docker continues to be extremely popular among developers. Along with Git and Kubernetes, it’s among both the most loved and most wanted tools.

Over 76% said they loved Docker, behind Git (nearly 85%) and ahead of Kubernetes (over 72 %). And Docker led the pack with nearly 30% expressing an interest in developing with it.

And according to a DevOps survey by JetBrains, Docker users are three times more likely to be found working as DevOps engineers or infrastructure developers, two times more likely to be architects, and 30% more likely to serve as team leads. They are also more likely to have a senior position.

Thanks again to the entire Docker community and ecosystem for the ongoing innovation, feedback and commitment to one another that makes Docker more vibrant and relevant to the evolving and expanding needs of developers. Finally developer feedback and input is core to how we guide our investments into the Docker platform. I want to encourage you all to provide feedback and requests about what you want to see in Docker by commenting on our public roadmap.

Join Us at SnykCon 2021!

This week is Snyk’s annual SnykCon virtual conference that aims to connect with the global developer and security communities and Docker is excited to participate as a gold sponsor for the second year! At last year’s conference, we discussed our partnership with Snyk to incorporate their leading vulnerability scanning across the entire Docker application development lifecycle. 

This partnership is just as important this year, as we’ve seen supply chain attacks happening at an alarming rate. In a cloud-native environment, everything you do is defined by code. We said it last year and we’ll say it again, security is vital to successful app development projects, and automating and integrating these security precautions with as little friction to development as possible, is key.

Together, Docker and Snyk bring security natively into the development workflow, so developers can automatically scan for image vulnerabilities while developing code versus after. The whole process is super simple too – you can automatically trigger scans after pushing an image into Docker Hub. Learn more about best practices for scanning and building secure images here. The best part? If you’re a Docker subscriber, you get access to Snyk scanning as part of your subscription!

Supply chain security is top-of-mind for all of us, and  Docker CTO Justin Cormack breaks it all down in his session:  “Understanding Supply Chain Security for Developers”, on October 7th, from 9:35am-9:55am ET. 

Justin’s talk discusses what you can do during development to avoid security breaches and targeted attacks, specifically honing in on:

Vulnerabilities in dependenciesCredential management in buildStatic analysis, code review, and ephemeral infrastructure

Webinar Recap: Docker Business – Management & Security at Scale

Recently, Docker Head of Developer Relations Peter McKee and Docker Head of Sales Scott Campbell led a webinar to spotlight the new Docker Business tier. 

During the webinar, Peter and Scott drill down into Docker Business, the pain points it addresses, the incredible value Docker Desktop packs under the hood, what makes Docker itself such an indispensable developer tool, and more. There’s also a demo of the Docker Image Access Management feature, and a Q&A session in which the presenters field live questions from attendees.

Docker Business: Management and Security at Scale

Docker Business is targeted at organizations that use Docker at scale for application development, and that require features like secure software supply chain management, single sign-on (SSO), container registry access controls, and more. The Docker Business tier starts at $21/month on the annual plan, with options for volume pricing.

Peter and Scott zero in on the challenges Docker Business addresses — security and scalability.

Security. Software supply chain attacks are accelerating. In order to ensure you’re building secure applications, you have to start with secure and trusted building blocks like Docker Official Images and Docker Verified Publisher Images available on  Docker Hub. Docker Business enables you to manage these building blocks by putting guardrails in place to ensure developers are only building from trusted base images.

Scalability. Managing tooling for hundreds or thousands of developers presents its own unique challenges. Many organizations lack visibility and control over access to content — especially for large companies with many work-from-home developers. There’s also a need for centralized user management and policy configuration. 

Enter Docker Business! Peter and Scott dive into how it addresses these and other issues through primary features such as centralized management for large developer teams, image restrictions and access controls.

Docker Image Access Management Demo

A key part of the webinar is Peter’s demo of Docker Image Access Management, which allows organizations to secure their software supply chain by managing which container images developers can use. Image Access Management also allows you to gain more control by configuring Docker Hub organizations to only allow limited subsets of images (groups or namespaces). Peter walks through how Image Access Management allows admins to restrict access to only Docker Official or Docker Verified Publisher images — our premier content on Docker Hub.

What’s Next for Docker Business?

There’s much more goodness to come. Image Access Management is just the first of many control-plane features to be added to Docker Business. In the not-too-distant future, look for SAML-based SSO, support for local registries, along with support for other public registries; visibility into what images are being used, versions and security vulnerabilities, and more developer productivity features. Check out our public roadmap to learn more about upcoming features.

Docker Desktop 4.1 Release: Volume Management Now Included with Docker Personal

Thanks to all of your positive support of the Docker subscription updates we announced on Aug 31, 2021, we’ve been able to focus on delivering more value to all users, starting with making Volume Management available for users on any subscription tier, including Docker Personal. Just update to Docker Desktop 4.1 to start using it.

Volume management gives you an easy way to manage and explore your volumes so you can identify which volumes are being used, what containers they are being used by and what data is in the volume. Now, personal users can view, download and delete contents from inside a volume.

You’ll be able to explore the contents of the volumes so that you can more easily get an understanding of what’s taking up space within the volume.

You’ll also be able to easily see which specific containers are using any particular volume.

We’re continuing to enhance Volume Management and would love your input. Have ideas on how we might make managing volumes easier? Interested in sharing your volumes with colleagues? Let us know what you’re interested in using here.

Docker Dashboard Update Settings

We’re continuing to enhance the update process, ​and now with Docker Desktop 4.1, you will be notified when a new update is available in the updates settings section. You can choose to view more details on what’s new or start the download process straight from the dashboard. 

If you use Docker Desktop at work you may need to stay on a specific version or need an IT admin to install an update, you may want to turn off checking for updates all together, which will disable the badge icon in the dashboard as well. Users on a paid team or business plan can do so by unchecking the “Automatically Check for Updates” setting in general. 

This is just phase one, we are looking to provide a more flexible experience to users on how they want updates to be handled by providing additional optional settings. Let us know what you would find the most useful here!

We <3 when folks try new versions, staying up to date makes sure you have the latest features (like volume management with  Docker Personal!) and helps us provide you the best experience as we are continuously addressing issues identified with each release. We also love to hear your feedback on the new stuff we’re putting out there.

Docker Compose V2 

We’ve released Docker Compose v2.0.0, it is now fully supported for users. We’re still working on providing a more standard installation path for Linux users, but all of the feedback you have given us in the past 3 months since we released the beta version has helped us identify issues and made us confident that it’s ready to be fully supported. 

You can use this functionality by running the docker compose command, dropping the – in docker compose.  We are continuing to roll this out gradually, you’ll be notified if you are using the new docker compose (meaning docker-compose will alias to use docker compose).

You can opt-in to run Compose v2 with docker-compose, by running `docker-compose enable-v2 command` or by updating your Docker Desktop’s settings.  

If you run into any issues using Compose V2, simply run docker-compose disable-v2 command, or turn it off using Docker Desktop’s settings.  Let us know your feedback on the ‘compose’ command by creating an issue in the Compose GitHub repository.

Self Diagnosis Tool

Most of the time Docker Desktop runs smoothly … but occasionally it doesn’t. And because it interacts with some of the lowest level parts of your OS (virtualization, networking, file system etc.) it’s often hard to figure out exactly what has gone wrong. So we’ve written a new self-diagnosis tool to help diagnose some of the most common problems, and where possible explain how to fix them. We released this quietly in version 3.6.0, so you may have noticed it already, but we’ve been improving the checks based on user feedback in real-world examples, and we’re now ready to launch it officially.

To try it out, use this command in PowerShell:

& C:Program FilesDockerDockerresourcescom.docker.diagnose.exe check

or this command on Mac:

/Applications/Docker.app/Contents/MacOS/com.docker.diagnose check

The tool runs a suite of checks and displays PASS or FAIL next to each one. If there are any failures, it highlights the most relevant ones at the end.

Please let us know your feedback on this new tool in the docker/for-win or docker/for-mac repository. Did it help you, or did it misdiagnose your problem? Are there more checks we could add?
