Project Completion Date: 2023-11-10
This project sets up a secure and scalable WordPress environment using Docker containers. It adheres to best practices for containerization, ensuring a robust and efficient platform.
- Modular Services (🔧): Each component (NGINX, WordPress + php-fpm, MariaDB) runs in its own container, promoting maintainability and isolating potential issues.
- Persistent Data (📁): Volumes store data like databases and website files, ensuring persistence even after container restarts.
- Dedicated Network (🌐): A custom Docker network facilitates secure communication between containers.
- Secure Communication (🔒): NGINX enforces TLSv1.2/1.3 for encrypted connections, keeping your data safe.
- Environment Variables (⚙️): Sensitive credentials reside in a .env file (ignored by Git) for enhanced security.
- Bonus-Ready (➕): The project allows for optional bonus services like Redis cache or FTP server with additional Dockerfiles.
This project showcases an efficient and secure approach to deploying WordPress using Docker containers. It demonstrates best practices for containerized applications, promoting maintainability, scalability, and security.
