Docker Quickstart
Docker concepts
build, run, and share
Flexible: Even the most complex applications can be containerized.
Lightweight: Containers leverage and share the host kernel, making them much more efficient in terms of system resources than virtual machines.
Portable: You can build locally, deploy to the cloud, and run anywhere.
Loosely coupled: Containers are highly self sufficient and encapsulated, allowing you to replace or upgrade one without disrupting others.
Scalable: You can increase and automatically distribute container replicas across a datacenter.
Secure: Containers apply aggressive constraints and isolations to processes without any configuration required on the part of the user.
