Just the Docker you need to know in 22 bite-sized lessons!

In Learn Docker in a Month of Lunches, Docker expert Elton Stoneman guides through everything you need to know about Docker in 22 short lessons you can complete on your lunch break. This freshly-revised bestseller has been updated for modern tools and the latest versions of Linux, Windows, or Mac, with new coverage of multi-platform builds, cloud container services, replatforming legacy Windows apps, and Kubernetes.

In Learn Docker in a Month of Lunches, Second Edition you'll learn how to:

  • Run applications in Docker containers on Linux and Windows
  • Package applications as Docker images and share them on registries
  • Model and run distributed applications with Docker Compose and Kubernetes
  • Add instrumentation to containerized applications
  • Build and deploy apps with Docker in a CI/CD process
Docker revolutionized the way engineers build software. By bundling an application together with all its dependencies in a portable container that can be deployed almost anywhere, Docker makes it possible to manage applications without creating custom infrastructures. Free, open source, and battle-tested, Docker has quickly become must-know technology for developers and administrators.
