Clocker, the Docker Cloud Maker

on YouTube ↗35m

" summary

Clocker is an Apache‑licensed Brooklyn application that actually provisions VMs via Apache jclouds, installs Docker engines, creates an overlay network with pluggable SDN providers like Weave, and deploys containers from a blueprint. A 10‑month project (37 forks, 10 contributors) demonstrates on SoftLayer: two Docker hosts, a Weave fabric, a three‑tier chat app (HAProxy, JBoss cluster, Riak/react), and live scaling of JBoss nodes in seconds, used for trials in production by Push Technology. Brooklyn + jclouds + Docker + Weave provisions VMs, installs Docker, creates overlay network, deploys containers
