Running Jenkins in Docker
Jenkins is a fundamentally master/agent architecture - but managing the agents becomes a chore. This course will teach you how to handle that problem by running Jenkins agents in Docker.
What you'll learn
Jenkins is a fundamentally master/agent architecture - but managing the agents becomes a chore. In this course, Running Jenkins In Docker, you’ll learn to work with Jenkins in Docker containers. First, you’ll explore some quick Docker fundamentals. Next, you’ll discover Jenkins agent architecture in the Docker paradigm. Finally, you’ll learn how to implement a fully distributed build farm using Docker containers. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Jenkins and Docker needed to automate your build agents.
