[Opensim-users] opensim binary standalone 0.8.0.1 docker file ready to go

[Giovanni De Gasperis]

Just few more words about “dockerizing" opensim….
The docker is a new way to virtualize and encaspulate a single application instead of virtualizing an entire OS and then run the app on top of it.
Also a dockerized app is sandboxed from the rest of the system (server) and uses less resources.
You can read more about docker here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docker_(software)
The same docker file works on every platform you want to deploy it.
The image giodegas/opensim-bin-standalone has no persistence yet, but you ca easily point to external db servers. I am now working on a standalone binary images pointing to an external IP where a mysql/mariadb is running.
I keep you posted.
cheers
