dmulligan/docker-example-nginx-tomcat-mysql

A docker compose project with a MySQL, three Tomcat and an nginx container all linked together.

To run:

    $ docker-compose up

Containers:

• MySQL: on startup, the container executes a simple database initialisation script ./db/mysql-init.sql, which creates a database containing a single table that is populated with a few records.
• Tomcat: three tomcat containers with a simple web application, located within ./tomcat/webapps, deployed. The web application contains JSPs to test the database link between the Tomcat and the MySQL containers.
• nginx: inspects the three Tomcat containers and automatically creates a load balancer for the first two containers (as they are setup with the same VIRTUAL_HOST environment variable) and a reverse proxy for the third container.
