Installing docker and launching container in Linux terminal (AWS)

 Installing docker and launching container in Linux terminal (AWS)


To install Docker on an AWS Linux instance and launch a container, you can follow these steps:

  1. Connect to Your AWS Linux Instance: Use SSH to connect to your AWS Linux instance.

  2. Update Packages: Before installing Docker, it's good practice to update your package lists:

  3. sudo su - root

  4. Install Docker: Install Docker CE (Community Edition) using the following commands:

  5. yum install docker


  1. Start Docker Service: After the installation is complete, start the Docker service:

  2. systemctl start docker

  3. Pull Docker Image: Now you can pull a Docker image from Docker Hub or any other registry. For example, let's pull the official centos:7 or ubuntu:14.04 image:

  4. docker pull centos:7

  5. or

  6. docker pull ubuntu:14.04


  7. Run Docker Container: Once the image is pulled, you can run a container based on that image. For example, to run a basic centos:7 server:

  8. docker run -it centos:7

  9. or

  10. docker run -it ubuntu:14.04


  11. That's it! You've now installed Docker on your AWS Linux instance and launched a container. You can explore further by running different containers and managing them using Docker commands.

Data Filtration Using Pandas: A Comprehensive Guide

  Data Filtration Using Pandas: A Comprehensive Guide Data filtration is a critical step in the data preprocessing pipeline, allowing you to clean, manipulate, and analyze your dataset effectively. Pandas, a powerful data manipulation library in Python, provides robust tools for filtering data. This article will guide you through various techniques for filtering data using Pandas, helping you prepare your data for analysis and modeling. Introduction to Pandas Pandas is an open-source data analysis and manipulation tool built on top of the Python programming language. It offers data structures and functions needed to work seamlessly with structured data, such as tables or time series. The primary data structures in Pandas are: Series : A one-dimensional labeled array capable of holding any data type. DataFrame : A two-dimensional labeled data structure with columns of potentially different types. Why Data Filtration is Important Data filtration helps in: Removing Irrelevant Data : F...

Website hosting on EC2 instances AWS Terminal

Website hosting on EC2 instances  In the world of web development and server management, Apache HTTP Server, commonly known as Apache, stands as one of the most popular and powerful web servers. Often, developers and administrators require custom images with Apache server configurations for various purposes, such as deploying standardized environments or distributing applications. In this guide, we'll walk through the process of creating a custom image with Apache server (httpd) installed on an AWS terminal.   Setting Up AWS Environment: Firstly, ensure you have an AWS account and access to the AWS Management Console. Once logged in: 1. Launch an EC2 Instance: Navigate to EC2 service and launch a new instance. Choose an appropriate Amazon Machine Image (AMI) based on your requirements. It's recommended to select a base Linux distribution such as Amazon Linux. 2. Connect to the Instance: After launching the instance, connect to it using SSH or AWS Systems Manager Session Manage...

Introduction to Kubernetes: Orchestrating the Future of Containerized Applications

  Introduction to Kubernetes: Orchestrating the Future of Containerized Applications In the world of modern software development, efficiency, scalability, and reliability are paramount. Kubernetes, an open-source container orchestration platform, has emerged as a key player in achieving these goals. Originally developed by Google and now maintained by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), Kubernetes automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. Let's explore what Kubernetes is, why it's important, and how it works. What is Kubernetes? Kubernetes, often abbreviated as K8s, is a platform designed to manage containerized applications across multiple hosts. It provides a framework to run distributed systems resiliently, handling the work of scaling and failover for applications, and providing deployment patterns and more. Key Features of Kubernetes Automated Scheduling : Kubernetes automatically schedules containers based on their resource...
