Development of a container management tool for Web applications using DockerDevelopment of a container management tool for Web applications using DockerΑνάπτυξη εργαλείου διαχείρισης container για εφαρμογές iστού με βάση το Docker Διπλωματική Εργασία Diploma Work 2016-07-132016enIn recent years, due to the rise of microservices, cloud com- puting and now the Internet of Things ( IoT ) the development, deployment and management of distributed services is more important than ever. In order to circumvent the challenges that arise from this evolution, we need tools that, among others, ab- stract the inherent complexities, manage dependencies, maxi- mize portability across systems and enhance scalability. Soft- ware containers encapsulate many of the aforementioned fea- tures. The Docker project, started in 2013, has enabled users to easily build, ship and run applications based on contain- ers, through an automated workflow. Running and managing multi-container web applications in the cluster infrastructure though, is not a trivial task, which requires to deal with orches- tration, service discovery, data and configuration management, networking e.t.c. We designed and implemented a container management tool for multi-container web applications, on single and multi-host (cluster) environments for development and production. We consider containers as components offering and requiring ser- vices, empowering a container-agnostic design. We offer a stan- dard way to map services for web applications into containers, complete life-cycle management for containers and provided services, coordination between dependent services, data man- agement, service discovery, network isolation with per-application custom networks, support for private container image registries and a solution to N-to-N configuration problem between con- tainers.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/Πολυτεχνείο Κρήτης::Σχολή Ηλεκτρολόγων Μηχανικών και Μηχανικών ΥπολογιστώνLappas_Dionysis_Thesis.pdfSourcecode.zipChania [Greece]Library of TUC2016-07-13Chania [Greece]Library of TUC2016-07-13application/pdfapplication/zip1.7 MB197.0 kBfidelio.freelabs.netfreefreeLappas_Dionysis_Thesis.pdfSourcecode.zipChania [Greece]Library of TUC2016-07-13Chania [Greece]Library of TUC2016-07-13application/pdfapplication/zip1.7 MB197.0 kBfidelio.freelabs.netfreefree Lappas Dionysios Λαππας Διονυσιος Samoladas Vasilis Σαμολαδας Βασιλης Deligiannakis Antonios Δεληγιαννακης Αντωνιος Garofalakis Minos Γαροφαλακης Μινως Πολυτεχνείο Κρήτης Technical University of Crete Distributed systems
