Containerization is a lightweight alternative to full machine virtualization that involves encapsulating an application in a container with its own operating environment.
I found the need to merge 2 Docker images (e.g. intersystems/iris-community:2020.2.0.199.0 + my home grown NodeJS Image). I found some advice on the Web but no real convincing solution.
Working from home during these Corona-days I'm short on resources. - no Linux machine available - limited disk space So I decided to give Docker in Windows 10 (named Docker Desktop) a try.
I've been working on deploying an IRIS for Health environment in EKS. There is a video session in the InterSystems learning portal about this feature but I have not succeeded in finding the proper documentation and resources to use this in my Kubernetes cluster.
Has this been deprecated/discontinued? Any idea where can I find the resources? Should I stick to StatefulSets instead of using the IrisCluster resource type provided by this operator?
Hi all, I'm having issues with mounting custom database on top of IRISHealth 2019.1 docker container. Data gets mounted only in Read-only mode. This means read operations are successful but I couldn't make the image with databases mounted in Read/write, both modes. Is anyone having similar issue?
For example, let's use this template repo. If you build this container A using docker-compose and then run the container it exposes REST-API which is available on:
localhost:52773/person/all
The question is how to make this REST-API accessible from another docker container B running on the same machine? E.g. with IRIS 2019.4 Community from this repo?
The problem is that for the second container localhost it's something which belongs to container B.
I think I need to set up a network between containers somehow. E.g. using docker-compose. But is there any simpler way?
I want to add ports 9100 and 9101 in addition to 52773. I read on docker container documentation that this is not possible on a already ran image. Currently it starts the google cloud IRIS health container automatically without me able to specify the additional ports. How can I add ports to Google cloud IRIS Health container?
When deploying IRIS in a container, what are recommendations for permitting users terminal access? There is docker exec -it, but that does not work from a user's workstation where - in the old deployment model - they would connect to the server over ssh using Putty and open a terminal session from there.
IRIS offers Durable %SYS Directory as a highly useful feature for working with containers.
Before inventing the wheel once more I'd like to know if a similar feature also exists for Caché / Ensemble. Official documentation is quite silent about. Though I have some names in mind that might know more about ( @Luca Ravazzolo? @Dmitry Maslennikov ? @Eduard Lebedyuk ? )
I am trying to experiment the Docker container in our development environment. I have successfully build an image and running the container. When I access the CSP portal home page ( http://<host-ip>:57772/csp/sys/%25CSP.Portal.Home.zen?$NAMESPACE=%25SYS), I am getting the following error:
How to programmatically setup docker-compose file to have IRIS container with OS authentication enabled? And have the following while entering the terminal:
For a solo developer developing web applications what will be the best technology to use IRIS or Studio with cache database and containers for deployment
After attending the Intersystems DACH conference in Germany at the end of last November and taking part in a few workshops about containers and microservices I took the plunge and installed Docker on home Windows PC, downloaded IRIS 2018.2 preview and got that up and running. Good stuff and I gave myself a pad on the shoulder at that point.
I'm interested to hear if folks have experience using Docker containers with Caché instances using ECP. Wondering if there are any special considerations when setting up a distributed application with multiple containers communicating with ECP. Any input is appreciated!
i've been trying to setup a copy of our production server so we can use it for testing/development.
i did a full backup. moved it to the new server. ran the DBREST command. got it to restore but seems like permissions get all messed up. and it just generates a bunch of errors.
Just curious how many companies use in their work Docker containers, I mean not only with InterSystems products. And if such companies exist, which of them uses docker and doesn't use it for InterSystems products by some reasons. What are the reasons? For companies which already uses InterSystems in containers, how do you use it? Development environment, testing or even in production ?
And if you don't use but thought about it, what are the reasons which stop you.
As for me, I've been using InterSystems Caché inside a Docker container in some different cases:
