CoreOS in Action is a clear tutorial for deploying container-based systems on CoreOS Container Linux.
Traditional Linux server distributions include every component required for anything you might be hosting, most of which you don’t need if you’ve containerized your apps and services. CoreOS Container Linux is a bare-bones distro with only the essential bits needed to run containers like Docker. Container Linux is a fast, secure base layer for any container-centric distributed application, including microservices. And say goodbye to patch scheduling; when Container Linux needs an update, you just hot-swap the whole OS.
CoreOS in Action is a clear tutorial for deploying container-based systems on CoreOS Container Linux. Inside, you’ll follow along with examples that teach you to set up CoreOS on both private and cloud systems, and to practice common sense monitoring and upgrade techniques with real code. You’ll also explore important container-aware application designs, including microservices, web, and Big Data examples with real-world use cases to put your learning into perspective.
