The Docker Complete Handbook: Containers, CI/CD, Security, and Production Deployment for Modern Engineering Teams

By Ned Bhatia

What if you could build, secure, and ship production-ready containerized applications with absolute confidence without guesswork, scattered tutorials, or outdated advice? Every modern engineering team faces the pressure to move faster, automate more, and reduce deployment risks. Yet many developers and DevOps professionals still struggle with fragmented workflows, fragile CI/CD pipelines, and unclear security practices. This book solves that problem.

The Docker Complete Handbook: Containers, CI/CD, Security, and Production Deployment for Modern Engineering Teams delivers a clear, practical system for mastering Docker across the entire software lifecycle. It brings together container fundamentals, automation, supply-chain security, performance tuning, and production deployment into one cohesive, actionable reference. Whether you're building your first container or managing a fleet of services across environments, this book shows exactly how modern teams succeed with Docker today.

You'll learn how to design efficient container images, manage multi-architecture builds, automate GitHub Actions pipelines, and enforce strong security controls using tools like Trivy, Cosign, and SBOMs. You'll understand how to run containers in real production settings using Compose, orchestration basics, advanced networking, storage optimization, observability, and proven troubleshooting workflows. Instead of theory alone, you'll gain practical competence, step by step.

After reading this book, you will confidently:

Build reliable, efficient, and secure Docker images for real-world applications

Implement CI/CD pipelines that build, test, push, scan, sign, and deploy containers

Apply strong container security practices, including SBOMs, signing, policy enforcement, and rootless execution

Handle multi-architecture images for amd64, arm64, and cross-platform deployments

Operate production-grade Docker environments with logging, monitoring, and resource optimization

Diagnose build failures, fix startup issues, and design robust rollback strategies

Decide when to scale beyond Compose and evaluate orchestration options such as Kubernetes and Swarm

If you want to advance your engineering skills, strengthen your team's delivery pipeline, and confidently run containerized applications in production, this handbook is your next essential resource.
