The beauty of Docker is how portable your applications become. Beyond that it also allows to version control our entire instance, providing a mechanism for quick rollbacks, updates, and audits. This tutorial will show you how to host your WordPress site with Docker by creating an image for it and deploying it.
Kubernetes (commonly shortened to “k8s”) is an open-source container-orchestration system for automating application deployment, scaling, and management.

This tutorial is very similar to the previous one, except this time we will create our GitLab Runner on Docker. As we won’t be repeating a lot of the material, please read the other tutorial first.
In the last tutorial we look at adding local files to your Dockerfile for image deployment. This time, let’s look at at files from your project on the DkIT GitLab server.
If you read our recent tutorial series on using Docker Containers via a web frontend you may also be curious about Docker on the command line.
This tutorial follows on from Accessing Your Docker Containers on your Private Network and is part of a series. If this is your first time here, maybe start at the beginning. This is the final part.
