Docker, SQL Server, and Ports

Now that I’ve installed my SQL Server container running on Docker, let’s connect to it and start playing.

Installing Docker

When I hear about a new Broadway show, I usually like to wait until I see it before I listen to the soundtrack. Otherwise, I miss the context and I can’t always appreciate it.

When it comes to tech, containers seemed to fall under that category. I kept hearing and attending sessions about them, but it didn’t really start coming together until I finally set one up. Now that I’m starting to use it a little more, the container is starting to make more sense. I still have a lot of questions but now I’m in a better place to figure them out.

More importantly, you have to start somewhere. So let’s start by install Docker so we can create containers and go from there!
