Artifact Registry
Artifact Registry stores build artifacts such as Docker images and npm packages in regional repositories with IAM and optional scanning. This chapter creates a Docker repository, authenticates docker push, and publishes the series file API image.
Continuous delivery with Cloud Build
Cloud Build runs containerized build steps on Google’s infrastructure and can push to Artifact Registry and deploy Cloud Run. This chapter defines cloudbuild.yaml for the series API and outlines GitHub triggers.
Deploying containers with Cloud Run
Cloud Run runs stateless containers on demand with HTTPS URLs, revisions, and autoscaling. This chapter deploys the series file API from Artifact Registry, configures the runtime service account, scaling, and ingress.
Linux on Windows, WSL, containers, and VMs
Linux runs on bare metal, inside VMs, in containers on a shared kernel, and on Windows via WSL2. This overview compares isolation and use cases and points to Docker and security chapters elsewhere in the knowledgebase.
What is Google Cloud Platform?
Google Cloud Platform is a suite of managed services for compute, storage, networking, and operations, scoped to projects inside an organization. This overview explains the resource hierarchy, regions, billing, and how to install the Cloud SDK so later chapters can deploy one small container app.
Docker networking
Docker connects containers with bridge networks, veth pairs, and drivers. This page covers compose-style networking; the Linux host stack—iproute2, nftables, and interface naming—is in the Linux networking chapter.
Docker Volumes
Containers have a "scratch space" that allows you to store files only temporarily, meaning as long as the container is running. But once the container stopped the data is gone.
Installing Docker
Docker Toolbox is outdated and I won't describe it in this article, but it used to be the only option for Windows 7/8 users in the past. It includes Docker Client, Docker Compose, Docker Kitematic…
Managing Docker containers
Run docker inspect <container> to check it. The result could be:
Managing Docker images
An image actually consists of many images, aka image layers. The main reasons being that those can be cached and thus don't have to be rebuild every time you create an image.
Docker Compose
The basic idea behind Docker Compose is to save you a lot of typing when creating, configuring, stopping, rebuilding or inspecting your containers. We create a docker-compose,yml file to define our…
Docker overview
Docker packages applications as images and runs them as isolated containers on a shared Linux kernel. This overview covers terminology and workflows; namespaces, cgroups, and when to prefer VMs are in the Linux OS series.
