Containers + Cloud Computing
= Internet Sized Computer
How to use an Internet Sized Computer
Internet Sized Computers Suck
• Big chunks of your computer might disappear for no
reason • Your data might disappear • Your processes sometimes might not be able to communicate with each other
• Some bits of your computer might be on the
other side of the world • Some people might be man-in-the-middling bits of your computer
How to run a process
$ echo hello world
fork-exec
$ docker run ubuntu echo hello world
POST /containers/create HTTP/1.1 { "Image": “ubuntu", "Cmd": ["echo", "hello", “world"]
}
$ docker -H anotherhost.oscorp.com \ run ubuntu echo hello world
docker client | swarm / \ node1 node2 | |
docker engine docker engine
$ docker -H myswarm.oscorp.com \ run ubuntu echo hello world
Docker in the Cloud • IBM Bluemix Containers • Joyent
SmartDataCenter
What can you do with it?
Find things that assume computers are slow to start and
can’t be thrown away
$ docker run myapp ./test.sh
$ ls tests/**/*_test.py | \ parallel docker run myapp ./test.sh
$ ls *.mp4 | parallel “cat {} | docker run
jrottenberg/ffmpeg ... > out/{}”
>>> import dockerrun >>> client = dockerrun.from_env() >>> client.run("ubuntu", "echo
hello world") 'hello world\n'
>>> client.run(“myapp", "tasks/reticulate-splines", wait=False) Infinite task queues
How to run an application • Tooling is still in
its infancy • Look into Compose, Kubernetes, Mesos
The future • Networking and storage • Scaling down
What if it’s only a second to spin a machine
up or down? We can start to have machine per web request, or machine per social interaction (IM, tweet or hug). – Timothy Fitz, 2009 http://timothyfitz.com/2009/02/14/cloud-elasticity/
