Shopify delivers the scoop on early Docker adoption | #DockerCon
“Docker solves real problems in development and CI environments,” said Simon Hørup Eskildsen, software developer at Shopify, Inc.. During a sit-down with theCUBE’s John Furrier and Jeff Frick at DockerCon 2015, Eskildsen explained that Shopify had been running its main application in Docker for about a year.
Unlike many other early adopters that have been using Docker in auxiliary applications, Shopify’s application utilizes up to 500 servers and processes 300 million unique views a month.
Amazing deploys
Before running Docker, a deploy would take 10 to 12 minutes, Eskildsen related. Since using Docker, a deploy through 2-300 servers can be done in three minutes, which Eskildsen called “amazing.” Statistics for CI have gone from 12 to 15 minutes down to five minutes. “We can ship code to production in three minutes,” Eskildsen reported. In eight minutes, the code is completely tested and functioning.
Shopify starting looking at Docker two years ago, but it was too early then, according to Eskildsen. In January 2014, Shopify starting seriously looking for a new software. However, Eskildsen emphasized how difficult it is to “take an application that’s 10 years old and put it in a container.” Therefore, the search was lengthy, and many other programs were considered before settling on Docker. Logging, secrets, application assets and Javascripts were all challenges to the integration process.
Nevertheless, Eskildsen stated that Docker has created an interface “for people to agree on” by taking the “batteries included, but swappable” mantra to the extreme, more specifically “swappable log-in, swappable networking and discovery.”
Eskildsen continued, “That’s really exciting for us. … Vendors will now compete to write the best” custom solutions.
