Create your application using Docker containers. Deploy and manage containerized applications on a proven, trusted platform.
Project Atomic introduces Atomic App — an implementation of the Nulecule specification, which lets you manage multi-container applications and orchestration metadata as easily as you manage RPMs.
With Atomic App, you can use existing containers as building blocks for your new application product or project.
Databases, web servers, and other common components are vital parts of applications and services. Utilizing existing containers to provide these core infrastructure components lets you focus more on building the stuff that matters and less time packaging and setting up the common plumbing required.
Nulecule is a made-up word meaning "the mother of all atomic particles". Sounds like "molecule". But different.
Also a specification for applications composed from multiple containers. Check it out on Github below, or read through the Getting Started -guide if you want to know more.
Based on proven technology either from Red Hat Enterprise Linux or the CentOS and Fedora projects, Atomic Host is a lightweight, immutable platform, designed with the sole purpose of running containerized applications.
To balance the need between long-term stability and new features, we are providing different releases of Atomic Host for you to choose from.
We’ve now released 0.4.2 of Atomic App!
As we get closer to 1.0.0, we are focusing on testing and bug fixes before our grand release.
The changes to atomicapp in this week’s release are:
Features:
Project Atomic is pleased to announce the release of the Atomic Developer Bundle (ADB) 1.7.0, a Vagrant box that provides a ready-to-use development environment for container applications. With the ADB, developers can dive right into producing complex, multi-container applications. The ADB is useful on Microsoft Windows, Apple’s OS X, and Linux distributions.
The 1.7.0 release adds several new features, including:
This release also includes many smaller changes and bugfixes, which are detailed in the release comments.
Recently, I have been reviewing a massive collection of Dockerfiles and interacting with customers and ISVs alike. In this time, I have seen all sorts of actions being taken for container design and how those containers should be run. One such action I really struggle with is when users are either told or take the initiative themselves to update packages within a running container. For example, they execute something like:
docker run -it foobar yum -y update
Project Atomic is pleased to announce the release of the Atomic Developer Bundle (ADB) 1.6, a Vagrant box that provides a ready-to-use development environment for container applications. With the ADB, developers can dive right into producing complex, multi-container applications. The ADB is useful on Microsoft Windows, Apple’s OS X and GNU/Linux distributions.
The 1.6 release adds several new features, including:
VARIANT="Atomic Developer Bundle (ADB)"VARIANT_ID="adb"VARIANT_VERSION="1.6.0"The ADB provides a container development ecosystem that ensures that developers are able to work with Linux containers even if their base operating system does not support it.
A fast release since 0.3.1, we’ve now released 0.4.0 of Atomic App!
Our biggest change is the renaming of atomicapp install to atomicapp fetch.
In order to fetch the container from the atomic cli, you are required to use the run command and pass the --mode=fetch parameters.
