Look inside
BuildYourHome, an e-commerce company specializing in home improvement products, wants to get its own house in order by modernizing its monolithic architecture. As a DevOps engineer, your task is to containerize its e-commerce application to improve scalability, maintainability, and resource management. You’ll define a container image with a Docker file, build the container image, and push it to the registry, making the image available for viewing in Docker Hub. When you’re finished, you’ll have a containerized application that’s ready for deployment.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
