AWS IoT Greengrass 1.10 Now Supports Docker Containers

On November 25, 2019, AWS announced the release of AWS IoT Greengrass 1.10 allowing developers to package applications into Docker container images and deploy these to edge devices. Deploying and running Docker containers on AWS IoT Greengrass devices enables application portability across development environments, edge locations, and the cloud. Docker images can easily be stored in Docker Hub, private container registries, or with Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR).

Docker is committed to working with cloud service provider partners such as AWS who offer Docker-compatible on-demand container infrastructure services for both individual containers as well as multi-container apps. To make it even easier for developers to benefit from the speed of these services but without giving up app portability and infrastructure choice, Docker Hub will seamlessly integrate developers’ “build” and “share” workflows with the cloud “run” services of their choosing.
Docker and AWS are collaborating on our shared vision of how workloads can be more easily deployed to edge devices. Docker’s industry-leading container technology including Docker Desktop and Docker Hub are integral to advancing developer workflows for modern apps and IoT solutions. Our customers can now deploy and run Docker containers seamlessly on AWS IoT Greengrass devices, enabling development teams to ship apps faster and accelerate the migration of apps from the data center to the cloud, and now to edge devices,” according to David Messina, EVP Strategic Alliances for Docker.
If you are interested in how to actually deploy a Docker container-based application to an AWS IoT Greengrass core device, AWS’ Danilo Poccia has a great blog that walks developers step-by-step through the process. Developers who are interested in learning more about how to get started with Docker technologies, you can expand your understanding of Docker and Kubernetes with these additional free and paid resources here.
