Docker Online Meetup #37: Docker 1.11
During this Docker Online Meetup, core team member Ben Firshman discusses the recently released Docker 1.11. Ben presents an overview of Docker 1.11 along with a few demos and answers questions at the end.
Highlights of this release include:
• Built on top of runC and OCI: Containers are now run as OCI containers with runC. We have split out the management of containers into a separate piece of infrastructure plumbing called containerd, a daemon for managing runC, so the Engine is more loosely coupled to containers.
• DNS round robin load balancing: It's now possible to load balance between containers with Docker's networking. If you give multiple containers the same alias, Docker's service discovery will return the addresses of all of the containers for round-robin DNS.
• Swarm container rescheduling no longer experimental (GA)

Docker is an open platform for developers and system administrators to build, ship and run distributed applications. With Docker, IT organizations shrink application delivery from months to minutes, frictionlessly move workloads between data centers and the cloud and can achieve up to 20X greater efficiency in their use of computing resources. Inspired by an active community and by transparent, open source innovation, Docker containers have been downloaded more than 700 million times and Docker is used by millions of developers across thousands of the world’s most innovative organizations, including eBay, Baidu, the BBC, Goldman Sachs, Groupon, ING, Yelp, and Spotify. Docker’s rapid adoption has catalyzed an active ecosystem, resulting in more than 180,000 “Dockerized” applications, over 40 Docker-related startups and integration partnerships with AWS, Cloud Foundry, Google, IBM, Microsoft, OpenStack, Rackspace, Red Hat and VMware.
