Preface

Why I Wrote This Book

I have been working on clouds at the IaaS layer for over 10 years. With Amazon AWS, Google GCE, and Microsoft Azure now providing large-scale cloud services for several years, it is fair to say that getting access to a server has never been this easy and this quick. The real value to me has been the availability of an API to access these services. We can now program to create an infrastructure and program to deploy an application. These programmable layers help us reach a higher level of automation, which for a business translates in faster time to market, more innovation, and better user service.

However, application packaging, configuration, and composition of services in a distributed environment has not progressed much despite a lot of work in configuration management and orchestration. Deploying and running a distributed application at scale and in a fault-tolerant manner is still hard.

I was not crazy about Docker until I tried it and understood what it brings to the table. Docker primarily brings a new user experience to Linux containers. It is not about full virtualization versus containers; it is about the ease of packaging and running an application. Once you start using Docker and enjoy this new experience, the side effect is that you will also start thinking automatically about composition and clustering.

Containers help us think more in terms of functional isolation, which in turn forces us to decompose our applications before stitching ...
