Welcome to the Docker Swarm documentation! Here's a quick guide to help you get started:
What is Docker Swarm?
Docker Swarm is a container orchestration tool that allows you to manage multiple Docker hosts as a single virtual system. 🚀
Core Features
- Clustering: Manage a group of Docker nodes as a single virtual host
- Load Balancing: Distribute traffic across services automatically
- Service Mesh: Enable communication between services securely
- Rollbacks: Easily revert to previous versions of services
Use Cases
- Deploy microservices applications
- Scale applications horizontally
- Run stateful services with persistent storage
- Implement CI/CD pipelines for containerized workflows
Getting Started
- Install Docker on your nodes
- Initialize a Swarm cluster with
docker swarm init
- Create services using
docker service create
- Monitor cluster health via the Docker CLI or UI
