Containerization Using Docker
This chapter delves into the concept of containerization, a transformative technology that encapsulates applications along with their dependencies into isolated units, ensuring consistent performance across diverse computing environments.
In particular, you will see practical containerization through the use of Docker, a leading platform that simplifies the creation, deployment, and management of containerized applications. We’ll explore Docker’s core components, its ecosystem, and real-world applications, providing you with the tools and skills to harness the full potential of containerization in your development workflow.
Unlike traditional virtual machines (VMs), which emulate entire operating systems (OSs), containers share the host OS kernel, making them more lightweight and efficient.
This chapter covers the following topics:
- Introducing containerization
- Docker concepts
- Managing containers with Docker...
