Docker Networking and Storage

Overview

Run reliable containerized applications through this practical course built around 10 real-world demos covering Docker networking and storage, from container communication and network isolation to persistent data, backup, and migration. Built around the Docker Certified Associate (DCA) exam objectives, this course develops the skills needed for real-world Docker operations and certification readiness.

Designed for developers, DevOps learners, cloud professionals, IT students, career switchers, and those preparing for the DCA exam, this course helps you understand how containers communicate and operate in realistic DevOps environments.

In this course, you'll explore Docker networking concepts, network namespaces, the Docker bridge network, DNS and service discovery, Docker network drivers, overlay networking, Docker storage, Docker volumes, bind mounts, the Overlay2 storage driver, and volume lifecycle management.

By the end, you'll be able to configure Docker networking, connect containers, troubleshoot connectivity issues, persist application data, and protect container workloads with backup and migration workflows.
