Course Overview

Section titled “Course Overview”

A hands-on introduction to containerization with Docker: how it packages applications and their dependencies into isolated, portable containers so they run the same on a laptop, in a development environment, or in the cloud. The course walks through building and managing containers efficiently, then orchestrating multi-container applications with Docker Compose, using a “Hello STACKIT” website as a running practical exercise.

It’s built as the foundation for the follow-on Kubernetes course, both on STACKIT VMs and locally with Docker Desktop.
