Installation for Docker
Docker was introduced to encounter the problem of “runs on your machine but not mine”. Since many applications are platform or framework dependent, running them on various machines is not always possible. Thus, Docker acts as an “isolated, resource controlled and portable operating environment”, which can host any specific application on any machine without the hassle of deploying the environment manually.
NCache extends this functionality by hosting Docker images and Dockerfiles for NCache in the following environments:
- Windows Server (NCache Enterprise)
- Linux (NCache Enterprise edition)
- Nano Server (NCache Enterprise edition)
Using these images, you can create containers which host NCache, or create your own customized images by modifying the Dockerfiles.
