This is a 2-day practical workshop that covers Docker functionality, use cases and deployment scenarios. It is targeted at software developers and system administrators willing to integrate containers into software delivery and maintenance processes. The workshop includes a lot of hands-on exercises that are based on real-life experience. All participants will receive cheatsheets as well as get access to online slides and all the code.
