Docker 101: Meet the portable future (tutorial)
summary
Explains that Docker packages each process into lightweight isolated containers using a copy‑on‑write filesystem, with images built either by running a container and committing it or by a Dockerfile and shared via the docker hub; demos include using fig for local multi‑container development, integrating with Elastic Beanstalk, and deploying to hosts like Tutum/Orchard. Describes a Flask‑based PaaS and an educational database sandbox built with Docker that work in class, notes Docker 1.0 ships June 2014 and provides 20 cloud VMs for the hands‑on tutorial.
