Docker provides a convenient and repeatable way to build isolated, self-contained services without the overhead of standard virtual machines. With a bit of additional work, Semaphore 5 services can be run using Docker. The following sections outline the steps to perform to build your images and containers for Semaphore 5 using Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL) 8. The docker-examples repository in github has examples using OEL8.
Note: You can see all examples by cloning the GitHub repository at https://github.com/Smartlogic-Semaphore-Limited/docker-examples.
