Creating and destroying many tiny docker containers

Posted on January 31, 2017

I’m finishing up work on an app for doing coding challenges. It creates a docker container, runs / unit tests the code and immediately destroys the container. The app works great on my local machine (with docker installed) but I’m having trouble figuring out how this is done in production. It’s my understanding that my app will be inside a Docker container, in which case I won’t be able to create other containers within that container. I hope this makes sense.
