We’re excited to announce the live version of our blog ‘MySQL on Docker: Understanding the Basics’, which will be presented by its author, our colleague Ashraf Sharif, on September 27th during this new webinar.
With 100K+ views to date, ‘MySQL on Docker: Understanding the Basics’ has become a popular go-to resource for MySQL users worldwide who are looking to get an initial understanding of and start experimenting with Docker.
So if you’re looking at taking your first steps with Docker for MySQL then this webinar is made for you :-)
Docker is quickly becoming mainstream as a method to package and deploy self-sufficient applications in primarily stateless Linux containers. This could be a challenge though for a stateful service like a database. As a database user you might be asking yourself: How do I best configure MySQL in a container environment? What can go wrong? Should I even run my databases in a container environment? How does performance compare with e.g. running on virtual machines or bare-metal servers? How do I manage replicated or clustered setups, where multiple containers need to be created, upgraded and made highly available? We’ll look at helping you answer these questions with our new Docker webinar series.
Check out the agenda and sign up for its first installment below, we look forward to “seeing” you there.
