What is the best practice to have a micro-service application configured by the customer.

The use case

  • The customer configure which services are available from an HTTP server
  • According to the customer configuration, the dockers containing the services will be started.

Some objectives to achive

  • Launch short lived application

  • Avoid asking the DevOps to configure business

  • Run micro-services only when necessary, avoid to run some services not used for business application

  • Easy to deploy (local, AWS, Azure...)

Possible solution ?

  • Docker in a docker (apparently not recommanded) jpetazzo advices
  • Mapping the docker socket

    docker run -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock ..

  • ... ?

  • I seek for a solution to easily deploy my application to customer. In most of the situation (AWS, Azure, ...). If I am not **inside** a docker. I need to install my "managing" application in the host. – Manticore Dec 04 '18 at 09:56
