| Why use Docker Swarm? | Using Docker Swarm to build your own container-hosting platform which is highly-available, scalable, portable, secure and automated! 💪 |
Why Docker Swarm?
Pop quiz, hotshot.. There's a server with containers on it. Once you run enough containers, you start to loose track of compose files / data. If the host fails, all your services are unavailable. What do you do? WHAT DO YOU DO?1
You too, action-geek, can save the day, by...
-
Enable Docker Swarm mode (even just on one node)2
-
Store your swarm configuration and application data in an orderly and consistent structure
-
Expose all your services consistently using Traefik with optional [additional per-service authentication][tfa]
Then you can really level-up your geek-fu, by:
-
Making your Docker Swarm highly with keepalived
-
Setup shared storage to eliminate SPOFs
-
Backup your stuff automatically
