Docker for AWS Public Beta

Today, we’re announcing that for AWS is graduating to public beta, just in time for AWS re:Invent. Docker for AWS is a great way for ops to setup and maintain secure and scalable Docker deployments on AWS. With Docker for AWS, IT ops teams can:

Deploy a standard Docker platform to ensure teams can seamlessly move apps from developer laptops to Dockerized staging and production environments, without risk of incompatibilities or lock-in.
Integrate deeply with underlying infrastructure to ensure Docker takes advantage of the host environment’s native capabilities and exposes a familiar interface to administrators.
Deploy the platform to all the places where you want to run Dockerized apps, simply and efficiently
Make sure the latest and greatest Docker versions are available for the hardware, OSs, and infrastructure you love, and provide solid upgrade paths from one Docker version to the next.

To try the latest Docker for AWS beta based on the latest Docker Engine betas, click the button below:

Docker for AWS works fully within AWS free tier, giving you the ability to try it out at no cost (just create a 1-manager, 1-worker swarm). Installation takes a few minutes, and will give you a fully functioning swarm, ready to deploy and scale Dockerized apps.
We first unveiled the Docker for AWS private beta on stage at DockerCon 2016 back in June, and we are excited to be opening up to beta to the public. We received lots of great feedback from private beta testers (thanks!) and incorporated as much of it as possible. Enhancements added during the private beta include:

All container logs are automatically sent to AWS CloudWatch for later inspection and analysis. That means you no longer have to rummage around on hosts to find the error you’re looking for or worry that logs are lost if a worker is replaced.
Built-in diagnose tool lets you submit a swarm-wide diagnostic dump to Docker so that we can help diagnose and troubleshoot a misbehaving Docker for AWS swarm.
Configurable ephemeral instance root disk size and type lets you choose faster SSDs and bigger disks to hold all your images, containers and volumes.
Improved upgrade stability so that you can confidently upgrade your Docker for AWS to the latest version

We’re particularly proud of the progress we’ve made on diagnostics and upgradability. These are features that set a true production system apart from simple fire-and-forget templates that just spin up resources without thought for debugging or future upgrades.
The improvements added during the private beta complement the initial features Docker for AWS launched with earlier this year:

Simple access and management using EC2 keypairs
Quick and secure deployment of websites thanks to auto-provisioned and auto-configured load balancers
Secure and easy-to-manage EC2 network and instance configuration

With today’s public beta announcement, we hope to get even more users interested in running Docker on AWS and testing the beta. Check out the detailed docs and sign up on beta.docker.com to be notified of updates and new beta versions.

What To Expect from Docker at AWS re:Invent 2016

It’s the age of IT transformation. Spurred on by developers, adoption of containers has empowered application teams to transform the way they build, ship and run applications, allowing for faster and more frequent delivery. Initially seen as a tool mainly for developers, Docker is now at the center of key enterprise initiatives, and has attracted the attention of IT operations teams. Enterprise IT ops teams use Docker to maintain control over their environment and boost security as they embrace cloud strategies like hybrid cloud and multi-cloud.
 
Docker at re:Invent 2016
This adoption of Docker within the cloud is why we are excited to be at AWS re:Invent 2016. If you’re going to be at the show, we hope you stop by booth . Docker employees will be showing live demos, and will be on hand to answer questions. We’ll of course be passing out free Docker swag as well.
This year we’ll be showing two types of demos at the booth:
1.     Docker Datacenter (DDC)  demo – In this demo attendees will learn about Docker Datacenter, our commercial solution that delivers an enterprise container management platform. The platform is supported by Docker and is built specifically to give developers and IT operations teams agility, portability and control for their applications. It is integrated with the latest version of Docker engine, Engine 1.12 delivering a set of features that make enterprise IT application team’s lives easier as they embrace cloud and hybrid cloud.
2.     Docker for AWS demo – This demo will teach attendees about Docker for AWS which is now available as a public beta! Docker for AWS is the easiest way for IT applications teams to setup and configure an install of Docker Engine 1.13, on their AWS resources. The tool allows for full use of all Docker APIs and enables IT ops teams to manage, deploy and scale dockerized applications across their EC2 infrastructure.
 
Docker Datacenter for AWS Customers
In addition to helping developers deliver applications more quickly by enabling them to self-service, there are several benefits for IT ops. Docker Datacenter allows sysadmins and Cloud Engineers to manage, deploy and scale containers across any infrastructure within their environment, including AWS EC2 instances. As part of the solution, customers have access to features in Docker CS Engine 1.12 (includes built-in orchestration, load balancing, service discovery, mutual TLS encryption for clusters etc.), allowing them to quickly create secure clusters and deploy containerized applications onto nodes within the clusters (this can be done based on resource availability). Teams can then easily scale the number of nodes and containers as needed. In addition, the portability of Docker allows IT ops to avoid lock-in and migrate application workloads to the infrastructure that makes the most business sense. But DDC doesn’t just deliver portability, it provides the necessary tools for IT ops to maintain control over their apps running in the cloud.
IT ops can rest assured that their applications are secure. DDC’s role-based access controls limit who has access to resources, and Docker Content Trust image signing ensures Docker images within the registry are current and untampered. Teams can even enforce policies that permit only applications with signed images to  run in production. This makes cloud technology like AWS a safer place for IT operations teams to run their mission-critical applications.
AWS re:Invent 2016 is less than a week away, and we can’t wait! Feel free to stop by booth 622 if you’ll be at the show. If you would like to see a demo, you can register ahead of time and get a chance to win some VIP Docker swag at the end of each demo. But don’t worry, if you can’t make it to any of the scheduled demo sessions, just stop by the booth and we’ll be more than happy to speak with you.

The Docker Community Directory is a tool for community members to collaborate. Everyone should use it respectfully, with genuine and specific Docker-centric messages. It should not be used to send messages that could be qualified as spam or otherwise violate Docker’s community code of conduct. We invite community members who think the directory is not being used properly by one member to reach out to community@docker.com with more information, so that we can address the situation accordingly. Those members not abiding by the community code of conduct and misusing the platform will be subject to a warning and potential removal from the directory.
Docker Community Slack
We launched the Docker Community Slack a few months ago, so that the Docker Team could easily collaborate with two key groups of amazing contributors: Docker Captains and Docker Meetup Organizers. After a few weeks of planning and figuring out the best way to proceed, we are now ready and excited to extend the invitation to the broader community!
Due to a high level of engagement, our Slack team reaches the 10,000 messages archive limit very quickly, you might not able to see older slack messages. Everyone interested in seeing or searching older messages can look at our Community Slack archive here: dockercommunity.slackarchive.io
How can I be invited to join?
Docker has set up a registration form. Provide the information required and a Slack invite will be sent to you. You can also contact community@docker.com if you have any questions or concerns.
What’s the Docker Community Slack URL ?
Once you’ve received the invitation and joined our slack team, you can go to dockercommunity.slack.com to login.
Who are the admins of the Docker Community Slack?
Karen Bajza (@kbajza), Lisa McNicol (@lisa.mcnicol), Sophia Parafina (@spara), Mano Marks (@mano), Jenny Burcio (@jenny), Sebastiaan van Stijn (@thajeztah) and Victor Coisne (@vcoisne) are the current administrators of the Docker Community Slack team and private channels. They are also in charge of monitoring compliance with the code of conduct. If you witness inappropriate behaviour, please reach out to one of us so that we can respond appropriately.
Who should I contact if I want to create a new public or private channel?
The Docker Community Team is the central authority for this Slack team. If you’re interested in creating a new public or private channel for your topic of interest, language or location, please reach out to one of the administrators listed above.
What happens to the IRC and Gitter channels?
The IRC and Gitter channels will be closed down. We will post an announcement on those channels before closing, so that users have time to register for Slack. We have enabled gateway access for users that prefer using XMPP or IRC client. Instructions for connecting an XMPP or IRC client can be found on the Slack website.

What’s New in Docker Datacenter with Engine 1.12 – Demo Q&A

Last week we announced the latest release of (DDC) with Engine 1.12 integration, which includes Universal Control Plane (UCP) 2.0 and Docker Trusted Registry (DTR) 2.1. Now, IT operations teams can manage and secure their environment more effectively and developers can self-service select from an even more secure image base. Docker Datacenter with Engine 1.12 boasts improvements in orchestration and operations, end to end security (image signing, policy enforcement, mutual TLS encryption for clusters), enables Docker service deployments and includes an enhanced UI. Customers also have backwards compatibility for Swarm 1.x and Compose.

 
To showcase some of these new features we hosted a webinar where we provided an overview of Docker Datacenter, talked through some of the new features and showed a live demo of solution. Watch the recording of the webinar below:
 

 
We hosted a Q&A session at the end of the webinar and have included some of the most common audience questions  received.
Audience Q&A
Can I still deploy run and deploy my applications built with a previous Docker Engine version?
Yes. UCP 2.0 automatically sets up and manages a Swarm cluster alongside the native built-in swarm-mode cluster from Engine 1.12 on the same set of nodes. This means that when you use “docker run” commands, they are handled by the Swarm 1.x part of the UCP cluster and thus ensures full backwards compatibility with your existing Docker applications. The best part is, no additional product installation or configuration is required by the admin to make this work.In addition to this, previous versions of the Docker Engine (1.10 and 1.11) will still be supported as part of Docker Datacenter.
 
Will Docker Compose continue to work in Docker Datacenter?  I.e Deploy containers to multiple hosts in a DDC cluster, as opposed to only on a single host?
In UCP, “docker-compose up” will deploy to multiple hosts on the cluster. This is different from an open-source Engine 1.12 swarm-mode, where it will only deploy on a single node, because UCP offers full backwards compatibility (using the parallel Swarm 1.x cluster, as described above). Note that you will have to use Compose v2 in order to deploy across multiple hosts, as Compose v1 format does not support multi-host deployment.
 
For the built in HTTP routing mesh, which External LB&;s are supported? Nginx, HAProxy, AWS EC2 Elastic LB? Does this work similar to what Interlock was doing?
The experimental HTTP routing mesh (HRM) feature is focused on providing correct routing between hostnames and services, so it will  work across any of the above load balancers, as long as you configure them appropriately for this purpose.
The HRM and Interlock LB/SD feature sets provide similar capabilities but for different application architectures. HRM is used for swarm-mode based services, while Interlock is used for non-swarm-mode “docker run” containers.
For more information on these features, check out our blog post on DDC networking updates and the updated reference architecture linked within that post.
 
Will the HTTP routing mesh feature be available also in the open source free version of the docker engine?
Docker Engine 1.12 (open-source) contains the TCP-based routing mesh, which allows you to route based on ports. Docker Datacenter also provides the HTTP routing mesh feature which extends the open-source feature to allow you to route based on hostnames.
 
What is “docker service” used for and why?
A Docker service is a construct within swarm-mode that consists of a group of containers (“tasks”) from the same image. Services follow a declarative model that allows you to specify the desired state of your application: you specify how many instances of the container image you want, and swarm-mode ensures that those instances are deployed on the cluster. If any of those instances go down (e.g. because a host is lost), swarm-mode automatically reschedules them elsewhere on the cluster. The service also provides integrated load balancing and service discovery for its container instances.
 
What type of monitoring of host health is built in?
The new swarm-mode in Docker Engine 1.12 uses a RAFT-based consensus algorithm to determine the health of nodes in the cluster. Each swarm manager sends regular pings to workers (and to other managers) in order to determine their current status. If the pings return an unhealthy response or do not meet the latency minimums for the cluster (configurable in the settings), then that node might be declared unhealthy and containers will be scheduled elsewhere in the cluster. In Universal Control Plane (UCP), the status of nodes is described in detail in the web UI on the dashboard and Nodes pages.
 
What kind of role based access controls (RBAC) are available for networks and load balancing features?
The previous version of UCP (1.1) had the ability to provide granular label-based access control for containers. We’ve since expanded that granular access control to include both services and networks, so you can use labels to define which networks a team of users has access to, and what level of access that team has. The load balancing features make use of both services and networks so will be access controlled through those resources.
 
Is it possible to enforce a criteria that only allows production DTR run only containers that are signed?
Yes, you can accomplish this using a combination of features in the new version of Docker Datacenter. DTR 2.1 contains a Notary server (Docker Content Trust), which allows you to provide your users cryptographic keys to sign images. UCP 2.0 has the ability to run only signed images on the cluster. Furthermore, you can use “delegations” to define which teams must sign the image prior to it being deployed; for example in a low security cluster you could allows any UCP user to sign, whereas in production, you might require signatures from Release Management, Security, and Developer teams. Learn more about running images with Docker Content Trust here.
 
As a very large enterprise doing various POC&8217;s for Docker, one of the big questions is vulnerabilities in the open source code that can be part of the base images. Is there anything that Docker is developing to counter this?
Earlier this year, we announced Docker Security Scanning, which provides a detailed security profile of Docker images for risk management and software compliance purposes. Docker Security Scanning is currently available for private repositories in Docker Cloud private and coming soon to Docker Datacenter.
 
Is there any possibility to trace which user is accessing a container?
Yes, you can use audit logging. To provide auditing of your cluster, you can utilize UCP’s Remote Log Server feature. This allows you to send system debug information to a syslog server of your choice, including a full list of all commands run against the UCP cluster. This would include information such as which user attempted to deploy or access a container.
 
What checks does the new DDC have for potential noisy neighbor container scenarios, or for rogue containers that can potentially hog the underlying infrastructure?
One of the ways you can provide a check against noisy neighbor scenarios is through the use of runtime resource constraints. These allow you to set limits on how much system resources (e.g. cpu, memory) that any given container is allowed to use. These are configurable within the UI.
 
Do you have a trial license for Docker Datacenter ?
We offer a free 30-day trial of Docker Datacenter. Trial software  can be accessed by visiting the Docker Store &; www.docker.com/trial
 
For pricing, is a node defined as a host machine or a container?
The subscription is licensed and priced on a per node per year basis. A node is anything with the Docker Commercially Supported (CS) Engine installed on it. It could be a bare metal server, cloud instance or within a virtual machine. More pricing details are available here.

Exciting news from CheConf

Eclipse Che is a developer workspace server and cloud IDE. With Che, you can define a workspace with the project code files and all of their dependencies necessary to edit, build, run, and debug them. You can share your workspaces with other team members. And Che drives Codenvy, cloud workspaces for development teams, with access control and other features.
 
Today in the keynote at CheConf 2016, Tyler Jewell made several related announcements.

Che runs on your machine as a Docker container, and generates other containers for workspaces making it a fully Dockerized IDE.
Docker now powers the Che CLI, including most Che utilities like IP lookup, curl, compiling Che, versioning, launching.
Che has added support for Docker Compose files in workspaces, making it really easy to write and debug Compose-based applications, right in Che.
Che agents, such as SSH or language servers for intellisense, are deployed as containers.
Chedir is a command line utility for converting source repos into Dockerized workspaces.
Che is now available in the Docker Store.
Codenvy is packaged as a set of Docker containers. With docker-compose up you start up ten docker containers that run Codenvy on your network.
Codenvy also uses Docker Swarm as the clustering and workspace distribution technology. Before the end of the year, Che and Codenvy will have an identical CLI &; so anywhere Docker exists, you can run Che or a clustered Codenvy deployment with the same syntax.

This is all pretty exciting. We’ve been happy to work with Codenvy on this project. After the keynote at CheConf, Docker’s own Patrick Chanezon led a session: Docker 101 & Why Docker Powers Che and here are the slides.

Docker 101 Checonf 2016 from Patrick Chanezon

More importantly, we wanted to get to work directly on Che, which is the fastest moving project under the Eclipse umbrella. So we’re happy to announce that Docker is joining the Eclipse Project! We look forward to working more with Eclipse and Codenvy going forward.
So check out the Che documentation, and Che in the Docker Store. And check out our other developer tools labs in the Docker Labs repo on GitHub. We’ll be adding in some Che content going forward.

Voting with Docker: A little break from the election

You may have heard, there’s an election for president (and many other posts) going on in the US today. For those who already voted, who want a break from voting, or just want to create a new quiz for their friends, we have the Example Voting App. And we’ve even created a poll to help you figure out the best quiz to make.

Which Docker voting app face off would you select?
— Docker (@docker) November 8, 2016

The voting app was created to showcase a number of features of Docker:

Polyglot development environments: The app has Python, Node.js, and .NET code, as well as Redis and Postgres services.
Easy deployment of a multi-service app with Docker Compose.
Easy Docker Networking.

All this using a simple $ docker-compose up.
The Example Voting App has been really popular at Docker events like the Docker 3rd birthday, and in our Docker Labs repository, which has a lot of example applications and tutorials. And recently, Docker Captain Alex Ellis ported the app to Windows Containers using:

IIS
ASP.NET
.NET 4.5.1
Microsoft SQL Server (2016)

So if you want a break from the election, check out our poll, clone the Example Voting App, and get started voting for something important like “Vi vs Emacs” or “Python 2.x vs Python 3.0” or whatever else you want. And if you want a bit more information, check out our beginner lab on Docker Labs.

Nov 9th: Introduction to InfraKit
While working on Docker for AWS and Azure, we realized the need for a standard way to create and manage infrastructure state that was portable across any type of infrastructure, from different cloud providers to on-prem. One challenge is that each vendor has differentiated IP invested in how they handle certain aspects of their cloud infrastructure. It is not enough to just provision five servers; what IT ops teams need is a simple and consistent way to declare the number of servers, what size they should be, and what sort of base software configuration is required.
Nov 11th: Docker Talk at CheConf16
Che provides a new way to package up a workspace so that it is reproducible and portable. This packaging is possible due to Docker with their descriptive runtimes. This introductory session will introduce you to what Docker is about and how Che uses Docker to represent workspaces, it’s server, it’s launcher, a variety of build utilities. You can even use Docker and Compose to build complex multi machine workspaces.
Nov 16th:  Docker Datacenter Demo
In this live presentation you will learn about our Docker Datacenter commercial solution and how it enables enterprise application teams to embrace cloud strategies, application modernization and DevOps. We will then show a live demo of the solution and host a QA session at the end.
