Worked as a Production SQL Database Administrator and developer for over 15 years for various companies such as Neutrogena, BakeMark, Solutions2Go and NextGen.  Want to help those students that want more that the basic SQL Language.  Creating real life courses for those students who want a simple path to becoming a SQL DBA.  I love SQL Administration and all that is involved in managing and creating a stable SQL architecture environment. I want to pass that experience and information to my students.

The course was very good as a beginner Docker user. What I liked is that there were errors and issues as we moved along. As I was following the course on my vm, I also ran into some issues. This is the real world where troubleshooting is always needed. Raphael did a great job by explaining everything, moving slowly, and being repetitive.

This course does cover all the basics for someone like me who never touched Docker before, but as someone who works in HiTec for many years it was a bit too basic and wastes a lot of time on very basic unrelated stuff, this felt like a waste of time for me.

I like the analogy of the car. I love it when teachers use analogies to break something complex down into something that is more easily understood.

I just wish you would stick with one method or another. DO or OracleVM it is hard to follow when you are jumping around. Other wise this is a great class with excellent information. I cannot believe how good it is. I am not on the dev team but an SA who is wanting to learn more about docker.

As a visual learner the slides aren't particularly meaningful or engaging. The course is proving to be hard-work to listen and learn. I think the course would be easier for somebody who learns be listening - auditory.

The course was informative and it gave me the exact knowledge what I was looking for. The pace was good and it covered the basics in this topic. I have one small note, though: Please, try to fix or at least minimize all those typos! :) I have a minor OCD and it made me nervous every time when you typed something.

I am very excited by this introductory course to Docker Technology. I have now laid the background to continue learning this technology and get the most out of it.

Really comprehensive and smart course. I was an absolute beginner about Docker before trying this course but needed to learn Docker for a short time. I have not finished the course yet but should already say that the course has been really helpful and now I can easily perform a lot of operations with containers and images.

The instructor knowledge of the subject is sufficient. The way he teaches the course is very engaging. The concepts are explained intelligently and free of jargon's. The audio and video quality meets the expectation.
