Configuring Kibana and ElasticSearch for Log Analysis with Fluentd on Docker Swarm
Using Kibana and ElasticSearch for Log Analysis with Fluentd on Docker Swarm Introduction In my previous post, I talked about how to configure fluentd for logging for multiple Docker containers. The post explained how to create a single file for each micro service irrespective of its multiple instances it could have. However, Log files have […]
How to maintain Session Persistence (Sticky Session) in Docker Swarm
How to maintain Session Persistence(Sticky Session) in Docker Swarm with multiple containers Introduction Stateless services are in vogue and rightfully so as they are easy to scale up and are loosely coupled. However, it is practically impossible to stay away from stateful services completely. For example, say you might need a login application where user session […]
Designing Microservice Architecture with Docker Swarm
Design considerations for a microservice architecture with Docker Swarm Introduction When designing a microservice architecture there are various design considerations needs to be taken care of especially in terms of scalability, high availability, resilience and loose coupling. Recently we went live with our application which is based on microservices architecture and hosted on Docker Swarm. […]
