Containerization platform
Packages an app and all its dependencies into a container, ensuring it runs the same in every environment.
- Fix “Works on my machine” problem
- No need manual setup for each machine/server
- Fix env mismatch (OS, libraries, versions)
- Same image → same behavior everywhere
- Lightweight compared to virtual machines
- Fast startup & consistent deployments
Architecture Flow
Dockerfile
↓ build
Docker Image
↓ run
Docker Container
↓ push/pull
Docker Registry (Docker Hub)
- Write app code
- Write Dockerfile
- Add .dockerignore
- Build image
- Run container locally
- Use docker-compose for dependencies
- Push image to Docker Hub
- Pull image on server
- Run container in production
