Description: PostGIS is a spatial database that is more than just a spatial data store. With PostGIS, users, web map servers and other applications can all run off the same database. And beware! Doing spatial analysis in PostGIS can become addictive.
Description: Docker is a new way of deploying applications on the web. With docker you create re-usable application containers that can be combined together to create application stacks. Each container typically serves a single purpose (e.g. database, mail server etc.). Containers are versioned so that your application can be deployed in a ‘known good state’. There is a huge ecosystem of pre-made application containers out there that you can mix and match into your application architecture. Docker can be used on Linux, MacOS and Windows 10 Professional (native) or Windows (using boot2docker). We have been using Docker at Kartoza since it became available and would like to share our expertise in using Docker with you.
