Welcome to Docker Workshop
A hands-on, workshop covering the full Docker developer experience - from inner-loop workflows and containerization basics all the way to AI agents, MCP servers, security hardening, and Sandboxing.
πΊοΈ What's Covered
Pick any track and go - each card links to that track's starting point.
π³ Docker Fundamentals
-
π³ Docker 101
Core container concepts and a real-world sample app - inner vs outer loop, running Postgres, and the Product Catalog develop β test β build β secure flow.
-
βΈοΈ Kubernetes 101
Deploy a real app to a live cluster and learn the building blocks hands-on - Pods, Deployments, Services, scaling, rolling updates, and Ingress.
π§ Docker & AI
Run models locally, wire them to tools via MCP, build agents, and safely sandbox AI-generated actions - all inside Docker.
-
π€ Docker Agent
Build, run, and share AI agents with Docker's declarative multi-agent runtime - concepts, built-in tools, MCP/DMR/RAG integrations, and projects.
-
π Docker Model Runner
Run LLMs locally inside Docker - no cloud required, GPU-accelerated inference out of the box.
-
π MCP Catalog & Toolkit
Connect AI models to real tools and services via the Model Context Protocol, managed securely through Docker.
-
π§© Agentic Compose
Multi-agent workflows orchestrated with Docker Compose - DevDuck, agentic Product Catalog, and an A2A fact checker.
-
π§ͺ Docker Sandboxes
Run AI coding agents in isolated microVMs with the
sbxCLI - credential proxying, network policy, and governance at scale. -
βοΈ Cloud Sandboxes
Scale
sbxagents onto Docker-managed infrastructure - the same CLI with a--cloudflag. -
π‘οΈ AI Governance
Enforce policy on agents - network and filesystem controls, MCP guardrails, observability, and sandbox kits.
π Docker & Security
-
π§± Container Security
Harden images with best practices - minimal base images, multi-stage builds, non-root users, read-only filesystems, and secrets handling.
-
π Docker Scout
A reactive approach - continuous scanning, CI integration, and recommendations to fix vulnerabilities.
-
π‘οΈ Docker Hardened Images
A proactive approach - migrate to DHI, image scanning, compliance, and attestations.
-
π Supply Chain with dhictl
Secure the supply chain end-to-end - browse the DHI catalog and migrate to hardened images with
dhictl.
β‘ Docker Offload
Offload builds and GPU-intensive workloads to the cloud seamlessly - same Docker commands, cloud execution.
-
β‘ Overview & Getting Started
Enable Docker Offload, start a session, and run GPU workloads on cloud infrastructure.
-
βοΈ Cloud Sandboxes Workshop
Master the cloud sandbox lifecycle hands-on - sizing, idle timeout, TTL, stop/resume/delete, multi-machine workflows, and cost control.
