I'm going to confess something: I still do it oldschool. A single box with a SQL server and a webserver running on it. I've taken courses in Docker and whatnot

I'm going to confess something: I still do it oldschool. A single box with a SQL server and a webserver running on it. I've taken courses in Docker and whatnot but never applied them.
When you're hosting a single-node cluster, what value do these docker-based tools offer? Is it the fact that you can use a dockerfile to declare your OS-level dependencies consistently?
- mixmastamyk 2y agoYes, cattle not pets, and portability.
- Pxtl 2y agoBut does the underlying server itself that's hosting the docker node not become a "pet", even if it hosts the "cow"?
- mixmastamyk 2y agoThere are specialized container OS hosts or ansible type updaters for wrangling traditional servers.
