@mlnews Are they going to add in a kitchen sink for the next release?

Somehow I don't see this becoming the next @scale.

not yet, for sure 😉

The web UI benefit is that it allowed me to understand why everytime I launch container it spawned a new one and made new generic name for it, and helped me understand more visually.

However You can do much more from it, than stop/start/restart/commit containers, and monitoring them. When it comes to doing edits its advised you do everything from command.

I actually never heard of supervisord until you mentioned it, thus I ran the default which I reckon is each process in a separate container and never had any issues yet.

For me the important thing I learned exploring docker is distinction between application containers and OS containers, and how to approach each.

Since you mentioned centos in docker, you might want to check Alpine Linux images, cause they fit the Just enough OS ideology of docker (or was that VMware Photon).

@Romo I should find out soon enough. Just finished spinning up a new VM for this.

@JaredBusch there is another project that took the PocketMine code and tried to run with it that I am looking at. Haven't had much time to dig into it today yet, though.

One thing to add, I'm not sure with docker but with LXC you can set resource limitations with cgroups.

Hopefully for use in something a little more powerful than a Pi. As much as I like Raspberri Pis, they just don't have the power.

Scotty! More power!

Lots of powerful ARM devices out there these days.

Nvidia's shield? Bet that would run some containers with ease.

It would, for sure. I have the top end Shield and that baby has some serious power. Several cores, integrated GPU, 3GB RAM.

Nice deal!

@Kelly said in Docker for Mac and Windows public beta is out! No more VirtualBox!:

I don't think Docker is going to eliminate VirtualBox, but it is going to make canned trials more the norm. Being able to download and launch a containerized trial version of software will make this so much easier.

I agree, two different shoes to fill. Both have a useful place.

What does this do for you better than that a template VM?

@RamblingBiped said in Containers in IT:

Do you automate configuration management and deployment using Puppet? Chef? Ansible?

This particular item (DevOps vs. Snowflakes) applies to VMs and containers equally.

They will be running on ESXi FREE 5.5update3

I'd start by replacing that 😉

BUT I DON'T WANT TO!!!!!!

You don't have to... but that is going to be a limiting factor in a number of ways. Especially when you are looking at management or want to expand your infrastructure.

Or performance, ease of use....
