Switch faster than if

isDefined('var') -> check if var exists
(url.SampleVar) -> looks for 'sampleVar' in url.
<cfparam name="varname" default="some default value> -> checks if the param exits if not assigns a default value. MonthaAsString(num) -> takes numeric value and changes it into string value

  • Images : An image is a read-only template with instructions for creating a Docker container.
  • Container: container is a runnable instance of an image.
• Docker’s methodologies for shipping, testing, and deploying code quickly, can significantly reduce the delay between writing code and running it in production.
• Docker’s container-based platform allows for highly portable workloads. Docker containers can run on a developer’s local laptop, on physical or virtual machines in a data center, on cloud providers, or in a mixture of environments.
• Docker Qucik Scenario
  • Your developers write code locally and share their work with their colleagues using Docker containers.
  • They use Docker to push their applications into a test environment and execute automated and manual tests.
  • When developers find bugs, they can fix them in the development environment and redeploy them to the test environment for testing and validation.
  • When testing is complete, getting the fix to the customer is as simple as pushing the updated image to the production environment.
