Docker Deep Dive: Build, Ship, and Run Containers

In today's fast-paced tech world, knowing how to work with containers is a game-changer - and Docker is the industry-standard tool that powers modern development, deployment, and DevOps workflows. This beginner-friendly course is designed to give you a solid, practical foundation in Docker, whether you're a developer, aspiring DevOps engineer, or someone simply curious about containerization. Through clear, structured lessons and hands-on demos, you'll go from installing Docker for the first time to building and orchestrating your own multi-container applications.

You'll learn not just how Docker works, but how to apply it to real-world projects using tools like Docker Compose, Docker Registry, Swarm, and Kubernetes. We understand that working with containers, images, and infrastructure might seem overwhelming at first - which is why this course focuses on practical tasks, visual explanations, and bite-sized lessons that are easy to follow and immediately actionable. By the end of the course, you'll be able to confidently build, run, and manage Docker containers, connect services, create your own Dockerfiles, and even deploy infrastructure using orchestration tools - all with real-world use cases.

I started my career in IT in 2012 as a Manual QA in a small outsourcing company in Ukraine. Over the years, I transitioned into an SDET role, focusing on building complex, scalable systems that meet demanding enterprise needs.

I've worked extensively with Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS-developing Java-based services that simulate entire corporate subsystems. While working with Telenor, I helped optimize tools and processes in the telecom industry. This course is built on years of real-world experience, and my goal is to help you gain not just theoretical knowledge, but the practical skills needed to use Docker with confidence.
