Our docker & screen development environmentRemoved

The article describes how the raintank team manages their complex software stack using a development environment that combines Docker and Screen. The stack includes several components such as front-end visualization, network data collectors, and a core RESTful API, all supported by shared services like Elasticsearch, InfluxDB, and MySQL. Managing these components manually posed challenges, leading the team to adopt Docker for containerization and Docker Compose for orchestrating multi-container applications. Screen, a terminal window manager, is used to interact with and monitor the services without needing to restart the entire stack, allowing for persistent sessions even when disconnected. This setup enables efficient development and testing by allowing quick deployment, live modifications, and easy navigation between logs and services, making it a powerful but underutilized solution in software development environments.
