An accessible guide to Docker networking that demystifies how containers talk to each other and the host, compares bridge, host, overlay, macvlan, and custom networks, outlines key docker network commands, and maps patterns to scenarios (dev vs. production, security/isolation), capped with a retail microservices example to show how to build scalable, secure, multi-host systems.
Guide to Kubernetes services and networking: how Services abstract pod IPs for stable access, with ClusterIP, NodePort, LoadBalancer, and Ingress; plus networking modes: Overlay, Bridge, Host. Covers best practices (naming, choosing types, ingress controllers, monitoring) and an e-commerce microservices use case for scalable, secure, highly available app communication.
Mastering cloud computing requires understanding Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) and essential networking and security concepts to ensure the security and integrity of your cloud-based infrastructure, including dividing your VPC into subnets, defining route tables, using NACLs, implementing security groups, network security, and monitoring and auditing with AWS services.
