Docker Swarm Cluster

Clusters

Docker Swarm Cluster is a pre-configured automated solution for the creation of multiple interconnected Docker Engine nodes run in swarm mode.

About Docker Swarm Cluster

Docker Swarm Cluster is a solution for those using Docker based applications for hosting; Docker Swarm Cluster can run Docker images as a swarm service and scale them up to a desired number of replicas, allowing for high availability and an even workload distribution.

Docker Swarm Cluster Features

Scaling

When you scale up or down, the swarm manager automatically adapts by adding or removing tasks to maintain the desired state. You can also declare the number of tasks you want to run for each individual service.

Integrated cluster management with Docker Engine

By using the Docker Engine CLI to create a swarm of Docker Engines where you can deploy application services, you do not need additional orchestration software to create or manage the swarm.

Multi-host networking

The swarm manager automatically assigns addresses to the containers on the overlay network when it either initialises or updates the application. You can also specify the overlay network for your services with Docker Swarm Cluster.

Load balancing

Users can expose the ports for services to an external load balancer, and internally the Swarm allows you to specify how to distribute the service containers between nodes.

Service discovery

The Docker Swarm manager nodes assign each service within the Swarm it's own unique DNS name and load balances running containers. Users can query every container running within the Swarm via a DNS server embedded in the Swarm.

Rolling updates

Docker Swarm Cluster allows users to apply updates to nodes incrementally. When updates roll out, the Swarm manager allows users to control the delay between service deployment to different sets of nodes, so in the case that something goes wrong you can roll back to a previous version/update.
