Hi Paulo I've given some thought to running dhis2 as a docker container but in the end reached the conclusion that lxc provides a much more straightforward container technology for running dhis2.
So for example in Rwanda they run a number of lightweight lxc containers : one for the nginx proxy, one for the main hmis instance, one for miscellaneous other instances, one for a mysql database (not for dhis2), etc. Everything based on ubuntu 14.04. Experience so far is that the containers run well, are straightforward to manage and allow very flexible provisioning of cpus and ram. Also they are extremely light because, like docker, they all make use of the same running kernel. I'd be interested to follow how you get on with docker images. I am pretty sure creating a docker image for this, based on a generic tomcat image, will be very easy to do. But dealing with configuration, access to log files etc to me just seemed more awkward than using lxc. But please let us know how you get on.
