12 Factor Microservices on Docker

Of late I’ve been interested in the intersection of containerization and 12factor apps.

This led me to piecing together a small proof-of-concept 12factor microservice on top of Docker. I’ve published this effort as a two-part tutorial on PacktPub.

2. Introduction and the first 4 Factors

3. The Remaining 8 Factors and PaaS Preview

My company has slowly started experimenting with containers… now to move our (stateless) apps toward 12factor! :)
