The Restart Policy specifies what Docker does after the container is removed or the daemon restarted. Learn the differences between no, on-failure, always and…
Healthcheck measures the response capacity of the container with a command. See process differences, readiness and dependency, interval/timeout/retries settings, and…
Excessive program output and logging driver without rotation can fill the disk. Set active driver, log storm cause, max-size/max-file, retention and warning in principle.
Reduce the size of the Docker image by checking the layers, small context, multi-stage build, production dependency, and appropriate base without removing the necessary…
Disk decoder usage can be image, container layer, log, volume, or build cache. First, find the location and owner, and then proceed with the exact backup and target.
To backup Volume, first specify the data type and consistency; save, encrypt, and restore the database with native tools and files with pause or controlled snapshot.
Volume keeps data outside the written layer container. Check the differences between volume, bind mount and tmpfs, permissions, lifecycle, performance and selection criteria.
Separate Docker secrets from code and images, install them temporarily in BuildKit, add them to the service in Compose, and rotate, audit, and respond to disclosure.
Usually terminate Docker TLS services on a reverse proxy; select ACME challenge, keep private key, extend, reload and perform external testing correctly.
To connect Nginx to Docker, set up a shared network, service name, host and forwarded header, WebSocket, timeout, upstream health, and IP trust limit.
The speed of code change is important in development; in production stability, image stability, secret, limited network, backup and rollback. See Compose file differences…
Compose can be suitable for single-server production, provided you know the constants of image, backup, healthcheck, secret, monitoring and rollback; HA and rollout.
