Docker grace period ends on January 31

  • 26 Jan, 2022

I received an email yesterday from Docker. It’s a reminder about the end of grace period.

Hello,

As a reminder you’re receiving this email because on August 31, 2021 we updated the terms applicable to the Docker products or services you use.

On January 31, 2022, the grace period ends for free commercial use of Docker Desktop in larger enterprises. Companies with more than 250 employees OR more than $10 million USD in annual revenue now require a paid subscription to use Docker Desktop. Read the blog or visit our FAQ to learn more about these updates.

For me is not a problem anymore i remove Docker Desktop from my computers and install Podman.  No issues, no problems everything works.

Don’t need Docker Desktop anymore.

This container is responsible for associating the names space with the pod and allowing podman to connect the containers to another pod. Create a Pod using Podman The first step is to create a Pod using podman: sudo podman pod create –name For our example we will create a pod with the name wp-pod sudo podman pod create -p 8080:80 --name wp-pod After creating the Pod you can see the infra container using the command: sudo podman pod ps -a --pod Note that host port 8080 has been redirected to port 80 of the pod.
