Running Dockerized MySQL and PostgreSQL in Production Without Losing Data — 30 Container Database Incidents Recreated by a Practicing DBA

If you run your database in Docker, you’ll learn how to reproduce 30 scenarios on your own computer that can wipe your data or make it unreadable—from `down -v` and `prune` to folder names, password environment variables, 10-second shutdowns, memory limits, image tags, and volume-copy backups. You’ll read the database logs to find the cause, then learn how to restore your data using point-in-time recovery.
