Docker Networking
Docker Network Types: Bridge, Host, None, and Overlay Docker offers several built-in network drivers to manage container communication and network isolation. The most common types include: 1. Bridge (Default) Function: Creates a private, internal network on the host. Containers on the same bridge network can communicate with each other, while remaining isolated from other bridge networks. Use Case: Ideal for single-host applications where multiple containers need to communicate, such as a multi-tier application with a web server and a database. Behavior: It is the default network type, meaning you don't need to specify it with the docker run command. 2. Host Function: Removes network isolation by allowing a container to share the host's network stack directly. Use Case: Optimized for performance-critical applications that require direct access to the host's network interfaces, without the overhead of network address translation (NAT). Behavior: The container uses...
