Training program

Containers vs virtual machines — architecture, isolation, performance
Docker Engine — installation, architecture (daemon, CLI, containerd, runc)
Images and containers — docker build, Dockerfile, layers, cache, multi-stage builds
Docker Hub and registries — push, pull, tagging, private registries
Lab: building and running the first application in a container

Docker networking — bridge, host, overlay, DNS, port mapping
Volumes and bind mounts — data persistence, backup, drivers
Docker Compose — defining multi-container applications, dependencies, environment
Compose in practice — web app + database + cache in a single file
Lab: 3-tier application with Docker Compose (frontend + API + PostgreSQL)

Docker Swarm — architecture, manager/worker nodes, Raft consensus
Services and tasks — scaling, rolling updates, rollback
Overlay networking — inter-service communication in the cluster
Secrets and configs — secure sensitive data management
Lab: Swarm cluster with load-balanced services and rolling deployment

Docker Enterprise Platform — architecture, UCP (Universal Control Plane), DTR (Docker Trusted Registry)
UCP — web UI, RBAC (Role-Based Access Control), collections, grants
DTR — image scanning, signing (Content Trust), immutable tags, mirroring
Supply chain security — from Dockerfile to production (signed images, vulnerability scanning)
Lab: application deployment via UCP with image signing and RBAC

Logging and monitoring — docker logs, log drivers, Prometheus + Grafana
Health checks — HEALTHCHECK in Dockerfile, restart policies, self-healing
Backup and disaster recovery — UCP backup, DTR backup, Swarm recovery
Best practices — security hardening, image optimization, CI/CD with Docker
Lab: monitoring stack (Prometheus + Grafana) + CI/CD pipeline with image scanning
