ernie ostic commented on ATLAS-2012:
------------------------------------
Nigel. This is huge. Thank you. Once we have a simple way for people to
test different builds, we can more easily expect to see a ramp-up in the number
of participants ---- such as governance and data professionals who are
interested in Atlas, but who don't have the deep java skills or open source
experience, or simply don't have the time to invest but want to work with the
most recent build. Until now their only viable option is to wait for a vendor
to create a VMware or similar image.

> Key: ATLAS-2012
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ATLAS-2012
> Project: Atlas
> Issue Type: New Feature

> Docker is increasingly become a standard way of easily running components in
> a flexible manner, whether for development, production, or test
> I feel there are a few things we can do with docker that will aid Atlas's
> appeal
> 1. We could provide a simple example of how to create a docker image from the
> Atlas build. This could be published on the wiki & it would make it easier
> for developers to use Atlas within a docker environment - mostly by
> addressing how to configure & start up
> 2. We could automatically generate a docker image as part of the build
> process. This builds on #1 by automating the creation of the image & making
> it "just part of the build"
> 3. We could publish the docker image from #2, for releases, to dockerhub,
> making it near trivial for any developer to easily pull down and experiment
> with Atlas. Full source of course would be provided/documented so that a user
> could customize as needed for their environment plus of course improve what
> is provided with the core project
> 4. We could work with other teams especially ranger, to allow similar efforts
> in other teams to easily work together & be orchestrated
