Every cat video in its own container!
Scotty Logan gave a redux on the brief history of running multiple processes on a single host: mainframes, shared memory minis, virtualization and how (ta-da!) Docker!
Scotty covered the mechanics of writing a Docker script to build a container. He then went on to describe what his view of best practice in the use of Docker and of container design. There was a quick discussion about how to load balance and authenticate with container design. Scotty described the relative efficiency of containerization relative to VM hypervisor and full OS.
Using Vagrant as a virtual development environment on her laptop running CoreOS and a private registry, Xueshan then gave a demo of building a Docker container and running it on her laptop live, and then pushed the image to Stanford private registry, deployed the image on AWS CoreOS cluster in 3 containers. She also showed a deployment of Drupal in AWS based on a scripted setup and docker push live.

docker run -d -p 80:8000 xueshanf/nodeapp
