Summary

The project involves creating microservices that populate a Couchbase Server bucket at chosen intervals, running on an AWS EC2 server. To accommodate team members' preferences for different programming languages without incurring high costs from installing multiple server-side languages, Docker containers are used for each microservice. This approach keeps the server lightweight by removing containers after each run. Docker is configured on an Ubuntu 14.04 EC2 instance, and Dockerfiles serve as build scripts to define operating systems, packages, and files for creating Docker images. The process involves copying required files into the image and using the Node Package Manager (NPM) to install dependencies. The containers, once built, are run using Docker commands, with specific configurations to connect with Couchbase Server. This method allows projects in any programming language to interface with Couchbase Server, fulfilling the team's diverse programming needs efficiently.
