Discover ways to shrink your Docker image size by exploring its contents broken down by layer.

In this highly visual and scroll friendly post from Daniele, you’ll follow the evolution of monolith, to components, to VMs, to today’s world of Kubernetes and cloud. Daniele writes: Kubernetes and Docker? What is the difference? Is it just a fad or are those two technologies here to stay? If you heard about the Docker and Kubernetes, but you aren’t sold on the idea and don’t see the point in migrating, this article is for you. 
Learn how you can leverage Kubernetes to reduce infrastructure costs and accelerate your software delivery.

Nick Parsons writes on Hacker Noon: This article will be your one-stop shop for Docker, going over some of the best practices and must-know commands that any user should know.

750 downvotes and counting on the comment below from Joao Fernandes, the Docs Lead for Docker Enterprise Edition. I know that this can feel like a nuisance, but we’ve made this change to make sure we can improve the Docker for Mac and Windows experience for users moving forward. As far as I can tell, the docs don’t need changes, so I’ll close this issue, but feel free to comment. Lots of comments are stacking up on Hacker News too.

In this special episode of The Changelog we’re sharing a full-length episode of our newly launched podcast called Practical AI — covering AI, Machine Learning, and Data Science. In this episode Mat Ryer and David Hernandez joined Daniel and Chris to talk about MachineBox, building a company around AI, and democratizing AI.

Is Netflix Titus open source yet? Yes. Titus powers critical aspects of the Netflix business, from video streaming, recommendations and machine learning, big data, content encoding, studio technology, internal engineering tools, and other Netflix workloads So, why is Netflix open sourcing Titus? …we’ve been asked over and over again, “When will you open source Titus?” It was clear that we were discussing ideas, problems, and solutions that resonated with those at a variety of companies, both large and small. We hope that by sharing Titus we are able to help accelerate like-minded teams, and to bring the lessons we’ve learned forward in the container management community. The question is, is it too late for Titus to gain traction in a world where Kubernetes has seemingly already won?

Quickly manage and inspect your Docker containers and images from an interactive UI.

I found this section of the announcement insightful: Most ideas never materialize. Most software goes unused. Most businesses fail in their first year. Yet here we are, one of the largest open-source communities ever assembled, collectively building software that will run on millions of computers around the world. To know that your work was meaningful, and that a vibrant community of people will continue building upon it…. can any founder ask for anything more? Best of luck to you, Solomon. We’ll be waiting to see what you hack together next!

Ever since Heroku delivered git push-based deploys back in the day, the open source community has been hard at work creating alternative solutions with similar UX. Gitkube is the latest tool in this space, combining Docker and Kubernetes to get you started with your own git-based automation.

This application provides a number of tools related to static site generation, all running in Docker containers from a single binary file. Rather than go through the hassle of installing Ruby, Rake, Bundler, Jekyll, Python, Proselint, Gulp, etc. you only need the one single binary file and to have Docker installed.

Mike Coleman, Docker Technology Evangelist, writing on the Docker blog: If you’re running an edge version of Docker on your desktop (Docker for Mac or Docker for Windows Desktop), you can now stand up a single-node Kubernetes cluster with the click of a button. If you are running Docker for Mac or Docker for Windows, you now have a fully compliant Kubernetes cluster at your fingertips without installing any other tools.

Dig in and get your hands dirty.

Docker for macOS makes it easy to have Docker containers running on your Mac in just a few minutes and now it has experimental Kubernetes support. We’re proud to announce that Docker for Mac with beta Kubernetes support is now publicly available as part of the Edge release channel. With this release you can now run a single node Kubernetes cluster right on your Mac and use both kubectl commands and docker commands to control your containers.
