Episode 5 of Mobycast focuses on building a business case for transitioning to Docker.

Chris Hickman and Jon Christensen of Kelsus discuss the company’s CI/CD toolchain - continuous integration (CI) and deployment (CD) - when it comes to containerization. Your CI/CD pipeline will look completely different after being dockerized.

Jon Christensen and Chris Hickman of Kelsus discuss Amazon’s Elastic Container Service (ECS) – how it works and why they use it. The term “container” comes from stacking containers on ships, and containers offer several advantages. But how does containerization relate to scaling on a large application?

What goes on inside an organization when it decides to make the switch to Docker? What does a team and company go through? Chris Hickman and Jon Christensen of Kelsus discuss transitioning legacy applications to Docker. About two-three years ago, Chris joined a company that was in the midst of transitioning to Docker to handle its Amazon Web loads. He was tasked with learning how to dockerize all of the microservices deployed by the company inside AWS.
