| 1 | [[Docker Swarm>>https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/]] is a container orchestration mode for Docker that allows you to deploy and manage multi-container applications across one or more Docker hosts. Instead of starting containers manually with [[Docker Run>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.installation.methods.install-xwiki-docker.docker-run.WebHome]] or locally with [[Docker Compose>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.installation.methods.install-xwiki-docker.docker-compose.WebHome]], Docker Swarm uses stack definitions to deploy services in a managed cluster environment. XWiki can be deployed with Docker Swarm by using the XWiki Docker images together with a stack file. | ||
| 2 | |||
| 3 | Docker Swarm also provides additional features that are useful in production environments, including: | ||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | * [[Docker secrets>>https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/secrets/]] for sensitive values such as database usernames and passwords. | ||
| 6 | * [[Docker configs>>https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/configs/]] for external configuration files. | ||
| 7 | |||
| 8 | When you deploy XWiki with Docker Swarm, Docker can automatically: | ||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | * create overlay networks for the services | ||
| 11 | * run the XWiki and database services | ||
| 12 | * manage persistent volumes | ||
| 13 | * restart failed services | ||
| 14 | * scale services when needed | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | A typical XWiki Swarm deployment includes: | ||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | * one XWiki service | ||
| 19 | * one database service (for example MySQL) | ||
| 20 | * persistent volumes for application and database data | ||
| 21 | * secrets for database credentials | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | With Docker Swarm, XWiki can be deployed using stack files, such as: | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | * [[Run XWiki (MySQL on Tomcat) Using Docker Swarm>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.installation.methods.install-xwiki-docker.docker-swarm.run-xwiki-mysql-tomcat.WebHome]] | ||
| 26 | * [[Run XWiki (MariaDB on Tomcat) Using Docker Swarm>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.installation.methods.install-xwiki-docker.docker-swarm.run-xwiki-mariadb-tomcat.WebHome]] | ||
| 27 | * [[Run XWiki (PostgreSQL on Tomcat) Using Docker Swarm>>doc:documentation.xs.admin.installation.methods.install-xwiki-docker.docker-swarm.run-xwiki-postgresql-tomcat.WebHome]] |
