Deploy Conjur OSS with Docker Compose - Platform Engineering Hands-On Lab Icon

Lab Overview

In this foundational lab you will deploy CyberArk Conjur Open Source v1.24.0 as a Docker Compose stack (Conjur server, PostgreSQL 15, and an Nginx TLS proxy), generate the data key, create a Conjur account and capture the admin API key, then install and initialize the Conjur CLI v8 to log in as admin and confirm the server is healthy. This is the canonical Conjur OSS deployment every other Conjur 101 lab builds on.
