Container Labs is a DevOps practice project designed to set up and manage multiple server environments using Docker containers and networks, along with monitoring using Prometheus, Grafana, and Alertmanager.
Clone the repository and navigate into it:
git clone https://github.com/TheDevOpsHub/container-labs.git
cd container-labsWe devided this repo into 3 main areas:
-
pools: Contains the base infrastructure for each tool and server. For example:
ubuntu-vm,grafana,prometheus, ... -
src: Contains source code, script for configuration and infrastructure as code approach. E.g: Ansible/Terraform
-
labs: Contains various labs with different architectural combinations. These labs combine components from the pools directory and utilize code from the src directory to provide hands-on architectural setups.
Below is the list of available labs, categorized by technology/tool. Each lab provides a hands-on environment to practice and learn using Docker containers:
| Category | Lab | Description |
|---|---|---|
| linux | fundamental | Learn basic Linux commands and concepts in a containerized environment. |
| haproxy | haproxy-basic | Set up a basic HAProxy instance to load balance between backend servers. |
| jenkins | jenkins-controller-setup | Deploy a Jenkins controller and explore pipeline fundamentals. |
| nginx | nginx-basic | Run a simple Nginx container to serve static content. |
| nginx | nginx-https-lab | Enable HTTPS with self-signed certificates on an Nginx container. |
| nginx | nginx-redirect | Configure basic and advanced URL redirection rules in Nginx. |
| apache-httpd | apache-httpd-basic | Set up Apache HTTP Server and serve web content inside a container. |
| apache-tomcat | tomcat-basic | Deploy a Java web application using Apache Tomcat in Docker. |
| os | ubuntu | Launch and explore a minimal Ubuntu-based container environment. |
| os | windows | Simulate a Windows container environment. |
| mix | aio | All-in-one lab combining multiple tools (e.g., Nginx, Prometheus, Grafana). |
