It’s Here! DataStax Docker Images for DSE

DataStax Academy offers a guided tour of DataStax Enterprise 6 using Official DataStax Docker Images approved for non-production use. Since 2014, DataStax has been exploring orchestration technologies and providing best-practice guidance for integrating DataStax Enterprise (DSE) into Docker. They have made their Docker images widely available for non-production use by hosting them in Docker Hub. The company uses Docker internally for testing, reducing testing times from 15+ hours to 20-60 minutes. They also use the DataStax images to power their reference application, KillrVideo. Examples of projects built using these images are available on GitHub, and users can contribute by creating a pull request. The company provides simple configuration options through environment variables and advanced configuration management through a mechanism that allows changes or modifications without replacing or customizing containers. Adoption and feedback will drive the approval for production use.
