What is Docker?

02/21/2023 | by Patrick Fischer, M.Sc., Founder & Data Scientist: FDS

Docker is an open source platform that facilitates the creation, deployment, and execution of applications in containers. Containers are lightweight, isolated environments that encapsulate applications and their dependencies to improve application portability and scalability.

Docker provides a variety of tools and services to create and manage containers. It uses a standardized format for container images that allows developers to run applications in any Docker-enabled system, regardless of the underlying infrastructure.

Docker allows developers to develop and run applications in a variety of environments without having to worry about the details of the underlying infrastructure. It also allows applications to scale by quickly and easily creating and managing containers in cloud environments.

Docker is widely used in software development and IT infrastructure and has changed the way applications are developed, tested and deployed.
