Imagine having multiple devices running Docker containers. How do you effectively manage all these containers? Personally, I’ve found the solution with Portainer. I can have a master running the main program and multiple agents running on the devices. In this blog post, I will explain various setups that are possible.
This week, I switched to a different telecommunications provider, which led to a dynamic public IP address. Consequently, in today’s blog post, I will discuss the implementation of CloudFlare DNS Service as a Dynamic DNS provider.
