To manage a multi-container Python application with complex interdependencies using Docker Compose, start by defining a "docker-compose.yml" file, specifying each service, its dependencies, and configurations. Then, ensure that containers can communicate by placing them on the same network. As such, Docker Compose allows you to scale services, set environment variables, and manage volumes.
By running the following command, you can orchestrate the deployment, and Compose handles service creation and interconnection:
docker-compose up
This simplifies complex deployments, making it easier to develop, test, and deploy multi-container Python applications.
