Best practices for docker (docker-compose?)


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

I have some experience with docker and I recently moved to Unraid and I want to convert most services that I previously ran in a VM to docker. However I am wondering a couple of things.

 

I know there is no real answer but say you have 3 services that all need a database. What do you do? Create a single database instance and have them all connect to that one? Or have a separate per service? In my docker experience I've always used a separate database per service. However as docker-compose is not really implemented there is not really a convenient way to manage a "set of services that need to stick together". Please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

I don't really mind creating those through the CLI but it would be nice to manage them through the UI..

 

If there are any other best practices please for docker/unraid let me know :)

 

Thanks!
