Docker Networking Made Simple: Connecting Containers Like a Pro

Unlock the mysteries of Docker networking in this practical guide! Learn how to:
• Understand the basics of Docker's default bridge network
• Create custom networks for better container communication
• Use container names instead of IP addresses
• Troubleshoot common connectivity issues between containers
• Connect services like SearXNG to other applications (e.g., Dify)
Perfect for Docker beginners and those looking to level up their containerization skills. We'll demystify concepts like port exposure, container-to-container communication, and custom networks. By the end of this video, you'll have the knowledge to solve real-world Docker networking challenges and optimize your containerized applications.

Yes some Docker networking content would be most welcome

[JaredVBrown]

Such a calm, yet punctual voice.
Like ASMR + tutorials.
And the content is easy to follow and understand.
Great Channel!

Great overview and great job at keeping this simple for people.

1:30 it's a similar problem with LateX(latechi). But, in linguistics you cannot use different alphabets to write the same word. So I pronounce latex as the material.

Yes, container networking. Podman would be awesome to cover too. We’ve all seen the “Hitler uses Docker video”.

Hi @Matt Williams if time permits, can you create a video showing how to deploy Dify to a cloud service like Render?

Hey Matt, I was really excited for this video, then only to realize theres no mention of Ollama in it!?!?

I have a project on the go where I'm trying to build a multi container app using docker-compose where the containers are backend- fastAPI, frontend- Nextjs and llmServer- Ollama. I'm running into problems having the backend connect to the Ollama server ... I get the dreaded [Errno 111] Connection refused

[NLPprompter]

since you are not in the Ollama dev anymore, dunno if this ethical to ask... could you cover something about llamafiles? is it really what that said faster Inference with cpu using their llamafiles instead of default llama.cpp

It's not pronounced "en-gin-ex", it's pronounced "en-gin-chi".
