What you'll learn

Microservices means running lots of software. In this course, Microservices with Docker, you'll see why containers are essential; because they make it incredibly easy to develop, package, and deploy software. First, you'll explore how to use Docker Compose to develop microservices locally. Next, you'll discover how to use Docker Swarm when it's time to move beyond a single machine, to a multi-node cluster. Finally, you'll learn how to deploy to a cloud-native Kubernetes cluster. By the end of this course, you'll feel confident in picking the right container orchestrator for your next microservices project.
