Logz.io has developed a robust micro-service architecture using the ELK Stack to handle vast amounts of data, and they utilize Docker to streamline the transition to production and minimize risks associated with instance-configuration changes. The blog post by Noni Peri highlights several key challenges encountered with Docker, offering solutions to potential pitfalls. These include issues with Boot2Docker's remote environment, which can complicate local communication with mapped volumes and exposed ports, and the intricacies of Docker image tagging, where proper tag management can simplify rollbacks to specific versions. Additionally, the post addresses the problem of leftover data from stopped containers and images congesting the file system, recommending the use of specific Docker commands to clear these effectively. The discussion suggests that further exploration of Docker Compose for local development will be addressed in future posts, emphasizing the evolving nature of best practices in Docker usage.
