Dan Smith commented on GEODE-60:
--------------------------------

Having just spent some time trying to get a geode build running internally on 
some jenkins slaves with old versions of java installed, I can personally 
attest that having a known working docker might be helpful.

However, I've been playing with just using the official openjdk images, and I 
think those also might work for building and testing geode. Is that good enough 
or is there a reason to prefer centos with oracle's java build? In any case, it 
seems like checking in these instructions on how to build and run on docker 
might be nice.

> geode build is on gradle and seems very tidy but it still requires third 
> party libraries, like Java.
> Let's have a Docker environment so that at least we have an reliable 
> immutable environment and we can use it on CI on builds.apache.org 
> https://builds.apache.org/view/E-G/view/Geode/
> (From my experience, It is a bit of pain to find a right environment on 
> builds.a.o but Docker is a cure so far.)
