Docker With Spring Boot and MySQL: Docker Compose (Part 2)

In my previous article, I wrote about Docker, the CLI commands needed to run a database, and Spring Boot applications. We used Dockerfile to set up the environment and run the application by running containers separately and then building a link between them. But for multiple container applications we can use the docker-compose tool. Docker CLI can manage a single container, but docker-compose can manage multiple containers and define the dependent services.
