Nigel is a speaker and trainer in the cloud-native community. He is a Docker Captain and author of many container-related books and video training courses. Docker Deep Dive The Kubernetes Book Quick Start Kubernetes The KCNA Book More by Nigel From the Author This is a book about Docker, no prior knowledge required. In fact, the motto of the book is: Zero to Docker in a single book If you're involved in the development and operations of cloud-native microservices apps and need to learn Docker, or if you want to be involved in that stuff, this book is for you. Why should I read this book or care about Docker? Docker is here and there's no point hiding. If you want the best jobs working on the best technologies, you need to know Docker and containers. Docker and containers are central to Kubernetes, and knowing how they work will help you learn Kubernetes. They're also positioned well for emerging cloud technologies such as WebAssembly on the server. What if I'm not a developer? If you think Docker is just for developers, prepare to have your world turned upside-down. Most applications, even the funky cloud-native microservices ones, need high-performance production-grade infrastructure to run on. If you think traditional developers are going to take care of that, think again. To cut a long story short, if you want to thrive in the modern cloud-first world, you need to know Docker. But don't stress, this book will give you all the skills you need. Docker Deep Dive is divided into two sections: 1. The big picture stuff covers things like: What is Docker?Why do we have containers?What does jargon like "cloud-native" and "microservices" mean? 2. The technical stuff is everything you need to start working with Docker: imagescontainersorchestrationTLSimage signinghigh-availabilitybackups Editorial Reviews Let me tell you, this book was a true delight to read. I would go as far as to say this is probably the best tech book I've read in a long while. If you want to learn Docker - this is the book to get! Dragan Lazarevski Nigel's excellent teaching style carries over to his books: they're engaging, clear, and he makes learning fun! This is not your college technical book you use to level your entertainment center after you've skimmed through it. I find myself going back over and over again to Nigel's books and videos when I'm working with docker. If you are just getting started with docker or working on your certification you need to check him out! Justin Hartman I really appreciated the way this book was written, including the consistent and simple format of a too-long-didn’t-read (TLDR) section up front, then a deep dive, followed by a review of the commands. I also really appreciated how the author made comparisons for both Developers and IT Operations individuals (ie. using Virtual Machines as an illustration/example). That really helped me to understand concepts that would be new for someone just starting to learn about containers. Adin Ermie
