Juju VS Docker Compose

Basically juju is used to deploy microservices, and other stuff too: https://juju.is/

Each app is packaged in a charm which seems to be a yaml declaring inputs, dependencies and other meta data and optional python code that can respond to certain lifecycle hooks

I am currently working myself through setting up our new Research GPU-Cluster where we have "sort of" managed to deploy MAAS to manage all the servers more efficiently, and on top of MAAS then use Juju to deploy the further components of the cluster. The components here are

Kubernetes Custom Resources were created to allow the Kubernetes API to be extended for domain-specific logic, by defining new resource types and controllers. OSS frameworks like operator-sdk, kubebuilder and juju were created to simplify the creation of custom resources and their controllers. Tools built with these frameworks came to be known as Operators.

Depending on what you're trying to accomplish, Juju and MAAS, if not just automate with preseed for custom desktops.

At Canonical I work on two open-source projects written in Go: Juju, a large cloud-based application deployment tool, and Pebble, a small Linux service manager. Both include CLI clients and API-based server daemons. Juju in particular is a large distributed system.

The new Portainer charm allows users of Canonical’s Charmed Kubernetes distribution to automatically install and integrate Portainer Business as part of the Kubernetes cluster deployment process, using Juju, the Charmed Operator framework.

Docker,

This foundation now opens the door to even more powerful concepts. You can explore more advanced concepts such as container networking, streamlining the management of complex applications with Docker Compose, and how to make your application data persistent using volumes.

In many projects that are containerized, especially in cases where development is also done locally with docker-compose, teams often have two Dockerfiles, 1 for Development, the other for Production. If you happen to have multiple environments like pre-prod, staging and so on, some teams could have different Dockerfiles for these environments.

sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

You can also use Docker Compose to deploy the cluster, without having to write all the previous commands.

[ec2-user]$ sudo yum update -y [ec2-user]$ sudo yum install -y docker [ec2-user]$ sudo service docker start [ec2-user]$ sudo curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/latest/download/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m) -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose [ec2-user]$ sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose [ec2-user]$ docker --version Docker version 20.10.23, build 7155243 [ec2-user]$ docker-compose --version Docker Compose version v2.18.1
