Docker provides operating system level virtualisation. It eases the setting up, cloning and distribution of fully functional GUI less Linux operating system. In python programming, the setting of library and distribution can be difficult in many cases if the libraries are inherently depended on OS and low level languages. This become bottle neck in learning and experimenting with Python. Docker removes this barrier by file like virtual environments of fully functional OS.
The current workshop gives an hands on training on setting up docker for major operating systems. We will be using nested virtualisation in windows OS and native application for Linux OS’s. The docker setup and consuming various data science oriented docker containers will be looked upon. After setting up the docker, we will be discussing on Jupyter notebooks, a perfect GUI for docker headless server situation.
