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.

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...

An Introduction to LangChain: Simplifying Language Model Applications

  An Introduction to LangChain: Simplifying Language Model Applications LangChain is a powerful framework designed to streamline the development and deployment of applications that leverage language models. As the capabilities of language models continue to expand, LangChain offers a unified interface and a set of tools that make it easier for developers to build complex applications, manage workflows, and integrate with various data sources. Let's explore what LangChain is, its key features, and how it can be used to create sophisticated language model-driven applications. What is LangChain? LangChain is an open-source framework that abstracts the complexities of working with large language models (LLMs) and provides a consistent, modular approach to application development. It is particularly well-suited for tasks that involve natural language processing (NLP), such as chatbots, data analysis, content generation, and more. By providing a cohesive set of tools and components, Lang...

"Mastering Computer Vision: An In-Depth Exploration of OpenCV"

                                     OPEN CV  What is OPEN CV?   OpenCV  is a huge open-source library for computer vision, machine learning, and image processing. OpenCV supports a wide variety of programming languages like Python, C++, Java, etc. It can process images and videos to identify objects, faces, or even the handwriting of a human. When it is integrated with various libraries, such as  Numpy   which is a highly optimized library for numerical operations, then the number of weapons increases in your Arsenal i.e. whatever operations one can do in Numpy can be combined with OpenCV. With its easy-to-use interface and robust features, OpenCV has become the favorite of data scientists and computer vision engineers. Whether you’re looking to track objects in a video stream, build a face recognition system, or edit images creatively, OpenCV Python implementation is...
