Fedora Cloud agreed to make a base image plus several tailored to specific purposes. This is one of the tailored ones — Docker host ready to go.
New Fedora product: Fedora Atomic (Cloud Image) - Docker host ready to go in the cloud. This is the "host" component of the [http://www.projectatomic.io/ Project Atomic] pattern.

Presently, a compose server atomic01.qa.fedoraproject.org has been set up, and is composing trees.  The content is rsync'd to http://rpm-ostree.cloud.fedoraproject.org/repo/.  This server is running an instance of https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree-toolbox which generates trees and disk images.

Atomic Cloud Image

Summary

New Fedora product: Fedora Atomic (Cloud Image) - Docker host ready to go in the cloud. This is the "host" component of the Project Atomic pattern.

  • Responsible WG: Cloud

Current status

Presently, a compose server atomic01.qa.fedoraproject.org has been set up, and is composing trees. The content is rsync'd to http://rpm-ostree.cloud.fedoraproject.org/repo/. This server is running an instance of https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree-toolbox which generates trees and disk images.

Detailed Description

There are two major delivery aspects to Atomic; the host (this change) and the container: Changes/Docker_Container_Image.

The host system will use rpm-ostree technology to do atomic updates of the host system. This is distinct from the traditional Fedora package manager.

In this instance, the host system is only targeted for cloud providers.

Benefit to Fedora

Containers are a powerful and flexible way to deploy and manage server applications, with numerous benefits such as density, ease of deployment, and orchestration. In concert with Changes/Docker_Container_Image, this will allow running Fedora content in containers and on the host system. The same RPM content will go into both.

If all fails, there simply won't be a Fedora Atomic Cloud Image product for F21.

  • Blocks product? Yes, Atomic Cloud Image (duh!)

Release Notes

New Fedora product: Fedora Atomic Cloud Image, featuring Docker and tools from Project Atomic.

Docker is an easy to use interface for running application containers on Linux. Fedora is uniquely positioned to provide the best platform for Docker, since this container technology is not a security solution, but can be made reasonably secure when wrapped with SELinux.
