CONTAINER-BASED DEFENSE: COMBATING DDOS ATTACKS IN SOFTWARE-DEFINED NETWORKS

Abstract

There is a lot of interest in Docker, an open-source application containerization breakthrough.  Applications may be built, delivered, and run across a network using Docker.  In contrast to past advancements, Docker has the potential to streamline labor-intensive procedures.  The time and effort needed to provide and oversee services has been decreased as a result of this breakthrough.  Docker offers a window of opportunity to further improve server farms' (DCs') effectiveness.  Nevertheless, existing concepts and approaches are not sufficient to effectively use Docker containers for asset distribution.  The outdated PC clustering techniques have been defeated by the idea of mass grouping.  In this paper, we assess the Docker environment's effectiveness and examine the security implications of using containers in typical situations.  To improve the flexibility and variety of use arrangement and activity in distributed computing environments, new designs and processes are being developed and taken into consideration, such as microservice engineering and Docker holders.  This article presents a behavior analysis of DoS/DDoS attacks for Dockers.  Without a doubt, Docker has taken the lead in the container business.  It is a complete tool for transferring software packages and programs, not merely a storage system.  A lightweight, quick, and adaptable substitute for hypervisor-based virtualization is the Docker holder, which allows the sharing of activity frameworks and related libraries.  It is a great match for software-defined network traffic because of these qualities.
