Docker deployed by BOSH
If you're already working with Docker images then BOSH is a great way to put them into production. Deploy a complete system on Day 1 and have confidence with Day 2 operational support: resurrection of missing servers, resize host machines, resize disks, update host servers with CVE patches, and much more.
This BOSH release can help. See an example below of a host machine running several Docker containers, all backed by a persistent disk. Also see how to add a bosh.yml
deployment file to your Dockerfile
repository to make life easy for your users.
It can also be used to dynamically provision Docker containers running databases and message buses with an API that is Open Service Broker API compatible. See the cf-containers-broker-boshrelease for more information.
Finally, you can deploy & manage a cluster of Docker Swarm nodes.
