Configuring IBM Integration Bus to run in Docker
You can configure IBM® Integration Bus to run in a Docker container.
About this task
Docker enables you to package an integration node into a standardized unit for software development. Changes to your IBM Integration Bus environment can then be deployed to test and staging systems quickly and easily, which can be a major benefit to continuous delivery in your enterprise. You can choose to build specific configurations into your IBM Integration Bus Docker images, such as integration servers that already have particular applications deployed, or you can choose to start up a Docker container from the image and then deploy changes to the running integration node.
You can create your own Docker images, or you can download an image of the IBM Integration Bus for Developers edition from https://hub.docker.com/r/ibmcom/iib/ and run this in a Docker container.
Procedure
Use the information in the following topics to help you plan, install, and configure IBM Integration Bus to run in Docker:
