Discuss how to start Docker applications on Synology NAS

With the continuous development of cloud computing technology, Docker has become one of the most popular containerization technologies. Synology NAS has become a popular network storage device in many homes and small businesses. In response to the demand for combining the two, Synology also provides built-in Docker support.

In this article, we will explore how to launch Docker applications on Synology NAS.

Step One: Install Docker

Before you begin, you need to install the Docker application through the Synology NAS Application Center. Enter the application center and search for Docker to find the application. Select Install and wait for the installation to complete.

Step 2: Search and download applications on Docker Hub

Docker Hub is the official Docker application market, where you can search and download the applications you need. Here, we take WordPress as an example.

Search WordPress on Docker Hub and find the image that can be downloaded. An image is a packaged file of files and resources required for Docker applications to run. On the WordPress page, you can find Docker commands, as well as the environment variables and port numbers required for configuration.

Step 3: Start Docker on Synology NAS

Find the Docker application, click to enter, select "Register", paste the command copied above, and fill in the required environment variables and port number and other information. After clicking "Next", you will enter the image download interface and wait for the download to complete.

Step 4: Access the application

In the Synology control panel, find the application, select the WordPress you just downloaded, and click to enter. In the details page, you can find the IP address and port number of the application. Enter the address to access the application.

Summary

Docker's application installation and startup are faster and freer than traditional application installation, and it also facilitates application management and migration. When combined with Synology NAS, we can easily run various Docker applications on the NAS. But when starting the application, please pay attention to the resources required by the application and settings such as the internal port and external port of the container.

I hope this article can help everyone better understand and use the Docker application on Synology NAS.
