Nov 28, 2017 / Infrastructure / Videos / DevOps

Learn how to quickly set up a local RabbitMQ cluster using nothing more than the official RabbitMQ Docker image. I will show you two versions that you can use to launch the cluster: one using docker run and the other using docker-compose. You’re going to learn how to enable clustering in RabbitMQ, how to make Docker containers work with each other as well as how to easily test a RabbitMQ infrastructure without even having to install RabbitMQ.

It allows you to bundle you application code / artifacts along with the environment used to run your application, into a single chunk called the Docker image.
