Is Alfresco 6.x on Docker production ready?

[mbasoft]

Hi,

since the quesiton of the original post was'nt claryfied by the answers of this thread, I ask it again: Is the use of docker-compose to operate Alfresco in a production environment recomended? Yes or No? If no, why?

Regarding the official Alfresco documentation, it is a clear No. But the reason ist not very detailied ("Due to the limited capabilities of Docker Compose,..."). See link below.

https://docs.alfresco.com/6.2/tasks/deploy-docker-compose.html 

I operate three Alfresco server which I installed with the docker-compose script provided by https://github.com/aborroy  Works flawlessly.

Gitub-URL: https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-docker-installer 

In my opionion this is a great installer (like the old days when we had a proper installer script to install Alfresco), So, question is, is this docker installer also ment to be used only for test/dev purposes?

Would be nice, if someone from Alresco could be clarify this question. Thank you.

Best regards, Matthias

hi

i second you and also think that this should be clarified

Docker Compose deploymen can be used for prod environments when using Community version. But I guess the usage with Enterprise is discouraged.

Hi Angel,

Thank you very much to clarify this question. Btw, your script helped me a lot to install containerized Alfresco community 6.2 as well as get a baisc understanding how docker and docker-compose works.

All the best, Matthias
