In this post I will show how to use Docker containers to create and scale a Kafka cluster, and also how to create, scale and move topics inside the cluster.

Warming up before AMIS 25th Conference event where I will be presenting with my friend and colleague Arturo Viveros (@gugalnikov) about Oracle SOA Suite provisioning, I want to share some practices that help us to provide Oracle Database instances between developers and improve our productivity.

Ansible is an automation tool that is recognized for be simple and powerful at the same time. From my experience, I can say this is mainly because of its scripting language: YAML, and its agentless architecture.

After find some limitations on building SOA Docker image using Dockerfile (as volume access, default size image) I researched on how to improve building process and I found Packer (from the same guy that creates Vagrant).

Cool news came from Oracle a couple of weeks ago: Oracle WebLogic Server is now supported on Docker!.
