How to use Docker

Docker
Docker offical webiste: https://www.docker.com/
Setup Docker
Prepare fresh version of CentOS, I am using CentOS 6.7.
Update the yum rep.
> rpm -iUvh http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
> yum update -y
 
Install Docker
> yum -y install docker-io

Pull some image of container, I am going to use CentOS container.
To pull the latest (CentOs 7)
>  docker pull centos
Or
> docker pull centos:centos6

Check which container images are installed:
> docker images
REPOSITORY          TAG                 IMAGE ID            CREATED             VIRTUAL SIZE
centos              centos6             3bbbf0aca359        2 weeks ago         190.6 MB
centos              latest              ce20c473cd8a        2 weeks ago

Run docker from image:
> docker run -i -t centos:centos6 /bin/bash
Note: this creates a container from image (you can see the ContainerID as hostname)

List containers:
>docker ps
>docker ps -a (To List all Containers running/stopped)

Stop/Start/Remove container:
>docker start ContainerID
>docker stop ContainerID
>docker rm ContainerID
 
Re-connect to Container
>docker attach ContainerID
Or
>docker exe -it ContainerID bash

Run docker container In Background:
> docker run -itd --name cs1 --net=none --hostname=cs1.csteam.net -v /csdata/cs1:/csdata/cs1:rw -v /root/.ssh:/root/.ssh:rw --privileged=true centos:centos6 /bin/bash
To exit Docker console:
Ctrl+P => Ctrl+Q

Networking

For following steps, you need to install pipework script.
#sudo bash -c "curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jpetazzo/pipework/master/pipework > /usr/local/bin/pipework"
#sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/pipework

 If you want to set IP address for container with DHCP. Then you don't need the next section. Setting DHCP settings is easier:
#pipework eth0 ContainerID dhclient
How to expose container with Private IP address from local network: MacVLan method
Host type is easy to setup(-net=host) but the container uses the same network interfaces and can not have their own IP address. That is why, we will use bridged network.
Easier way to setup bridged network is to use "pipework" script that automatizes the procedure.
Install pipework.
>sudo bash -c "curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jpetazzo/pipework/master/pipework > /usr/local/bin/pipework"
>sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/pipework

 Install dependencies:
>yum -y install bridge-utils net-tools
Note:
If your host server is CentOS 6, then you need to upgrade iproute rpm to support "ip netns" command.
Download RPM from:
https://repos.fedorapeople.org/repos/openstack/EOL/openstack-havana/epel-6/iproute-2.6.32-130.el6ost.netns.2.x86_64.rpm
(or iproute-2.6.32-130.el6ost.netns.2.x86_64.rpm)
>rpm -Uvh iproute-2.6.32-130.el6ost.netns.2.x86_64.rpm

Creating bridge(suppose that your Host's Ip=10.40.198.150 on eth0):
>ip addr del 10.40.198.150/24 dev eth0
>ip link add link eth0 dev eth0m type macvlan mode bridge
>ip link set eth0m up
>ip addr add 10.40.198.150/24 dev eth0m
>route add default gw 10.40.198.1
>service network restart
You need to wait for few minutes till the settings get applied.
And, Finally assign $CID container the new private(local) IP :
>pipework eth0 $CID 10.40.198.155/24@10.40.198.1
Done!
you can ping from other local PC, ping 10.40.198.155

How to remove unused virtual network:
>ifconfig br0 down
>brctl delbr br0

Saving Container as Image:
>docker commit $CID myimage:newcs

NLP for Uzbek language

    Natural language processing is an essential tool for text mining in data analysis field. In this post, I want to share my approach in developing stemmer for Uzbek language.      Uzbek language is spoken by 27 million people  around the world and there are a lot of textual materials in internet in uzbek language and it is growing. As I was doing my weekend project " FlipUz " (which is news aggregator for Uzbek news sites) I stumbled on a problem of automatic tagging news into different categories. As this requires a good NLP library, I was not able to find one for Uzbek language. That is how I got a motive to develop a stemmer for Uzbek language.       In short,  Stemming  is an algorithm to remove meaningless suffixes at the end, thus showing the core part of the word. For example: rabbits -> rabbit. As Uzbek language is similar to Turkish, I was curious if there is stemmer for Turkish. And I found this: Turkish St...

Three essential things to do while building Hadoop environment

Last year I setup Hadoop environment by using Cloudera manager. (Basically I followed this video tutorial :  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CobVqNMiqww ) I used CDH4(cloudera hadoop)  that included HDFS, MapReduce, Hive, ZooKeeper HBase, Flume and other essential components. It also included YARN (MapReduce 2) but it was not stable so I used MapReduce instead. I installed CDH4 on 10 centos nodes, and I set the Flume to collect twitter data, and by using "crontab" I scheduled the indexing the twitter data in Hive. Anyways, I want to share some of my experiences  and challenges that I faced. First, let me give some problem solutions that everyone must had faced while using Hadoop. 1. vm.swappiness warning on hadoop nodes It is easy to get rid of this warning by just simply running this shell command on nodes: >sysctl -w vm.swappiness=0 More details are written on cloudera's site 2. Make sure to synchronize time on all nodes (otherwise it will give error on n...

Why Uzbekistan needs its own local CDN

 Introduction Imagine that you're serving a website and the majority of your users are people from Uzbekistan. In other words, your business is targeting the local market of Uzbekistan.  To make your website faster you will need a CDN, this can help your business to perform better. There are several reasons why your website can be slow without the CDN acceleration: 1. No existing Tier 2 network. Tier 2 network plays an important role when it comes to the speed of the internet. It enables Tier 3 internet service providers to directly connect to the internet without other intermediate layer. In Uzbekistan, UzTelecom is the largest internet provider. According to the ` traceroute ` command it uses RETN tier-2 network. The RETN unfortunetly does not have the lines(network) in  Uzbekistan according to their map ( source ). This means that the majority of internet traffic needs to go through the single UzTelecom, which creates an overhead for the speed of internet. 2. Slow inte...
