Announcing Oracle Container Runtime for Docker Release 18.09


Oracle is pleased to announce the release of Oracle Container Runtime for Docker version 18.09. Oracle Container Runtime allows you to create and distribute applications across Oracle Linux systems and other operating systems that support Docker. Oracle Container Runtime for Docker consists of the Docker Engine, which packages and runs the applications, and integrates with the Docker Hub, Docker Store and Oracle Container Registry to share the applications in a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) cloud.
Notable Updates
Oracle has implemented multi-registry support that makes it possible to run the daemon with the --default-registry flag, which can be used to change the default registry to point to a registry other than the standard Docker Hub registry. More flexibility is provided with the --add-registry option which defines alternate registries to be used in case the default registry is not available. Other functionality available in this feature includes the --block-registry flag which can be used to prevent access to a particular Docker registry. Registry lists help ensure that images are prefixed with their source registry automatically, so that a listing of Docker images indicates the source registry from which an image was pulled.
 This release of Docker introduces an integrated SSH connection helper that allows a Docker client to connect to a remote Docker engine securely over SSH.
 The Docker client application can now be installed as an independent package, docker-cli, so that the Docker engine daemon does not need to be installed on a system that may be used to manage a remote Docker daemon instance.
 Docker 18.09 uses a new version of containerd, version 1.2.0. This version of containerd includes many enhancements for greater compatibility with the most recent Kubernetes release.
This release has integrated additional improvements and security fixes, including the fix to CVE-2019-5736.
Upgrading
To learn how to upgrade from a previously supported version of Oracle Container Runtime for Docker, please review the Upgrading Oracle Container Runtime for Docker chapter of the documentation. Note that upgrading from a developer preview release is not supported by Oracle.
Support
Support for the Oracle Container Runtime for Docker is available to customers with an Oracle Linux support subscription. Refer to Oracle Linux 7 License Information User Manual for information about Oracle Linux support levels.[Source]-https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/announcing-oracle-container-runtime-for-docker-release-1809

Why, when and how to return Stream from your Java API instead of a collection

Introduction Collections are basic and commonly used data structures. Programmers from the beginning of their career learn how to use them to receive, process and return data. Getting more advanced in Java programming, they find stream() method to convert a collection into a stream and learn how to process data using some of the stream’s useful methods like map, flatMap or reduce. They could also notice that other APIs in Java return a stream too e.g. String.lines(), Matcher.results(), Files.find(), Random.ints(). If you have experience with consuming streams but haven’t produced them yet, this article is for you. I’m going to show you some scenarios where streams can be very convenient and examples on how to use them. Additionally, I shortly mention error handling and resource management. The article is based on standard Java library java.util.stream. It’s related neither to reactive streams nor to other implementation of streams like e.g. Vavr. Also, I’m not going to cover a...

What is Kubernetes?

Kubernetes (also known as k8s or “kube”) is an open source container orchestration platform that automates many of the manual processes involved in deploying, managing, and scaling containerized applications. In other words, you can cluster together groups of hosts running Linux containers, and Kubernetes helps you easily and efficiently manage those clusters. Kubernetes clusters can span hosts across on-premise, public, private, or hybrid clouds. For this reason, Kubernetes is an ideal platform for hosting cloud-native applications that require rapid scaling, like real-time data streaming through Apache Kafka. Kubernetes was originally developed and designed by engineers at Google. Google was one of the early contributors to Linux container technology and has talked publicly about how everything at Google runs in containers. (This is the technology behind Google’s cloud services.) Google generates more than 2 billion container deployments a week, all powered by its ...

Best way to learn Java programming

Having said that I am writing this post dedicated to all my young (or I should say beginner) fellows who want to attain a certain level of proficiency in java technology and somewhere would like to take my advice on this. Keep in mind that if you do not like the way to learn java, I am proposing in this post, then just ignore me. Period. OR better, suggest me what you think is the better way to learn java fast or easily. Here I am assuming the people reading this post will be, who are very new to language, so I will start by listing first thing first. Make sure you have prepared your Java development environment ready i.e. You have installed JDK/JRE and you have an IDE like Eclipse. 1) Learn the language basics This is the first step for very obvious reason. If you don’t know the basics then you will never know either what to do next or what you are doing wrong. Initially, I do not expect from you to become the master of all java basic stuffs like keywords, core concepts o...
