Docker Networking: Conducting a Harmonious Campsite with Streamlit and PostgreSQL

Imagine venturing into the great outdoors, where Docker represents a meticulous campsite coordinator, ensuring every camper (container) knows their role, interacts smoothly, and contributes to a harmonious camping experience. In this serene environment, let’s explore how Docker orchestrates a network, crafting a seamless interaction between a Streamlit app and a PostgreSQL database, creating a cohesive, containerized operation.

Chapter 1: Mapping the Expedition — Docker Networking

Our journey begins with Docker, the seasoned campsite coordinator, establishing the rules of interaction and the layout of our campsite. Docker networking sets up invisible trails, ensuring our campers (containers) can find each other in the dense forest of our system, exchanging information and resources without getting lost.

Chapter 2: The Resourceful Camper — Assembling the PostgreSQL Camp

First, we set up camp for our resourceful camper, PostgreSQL, known for its impeccable skills in organizing and safeguarding valuables (data).
