About this course
Docker is a development tool and a virtualization technology used to automate the deployment of applications inside software containers. A container on the other hand is a standard way to package an application that contains all the configuration files, and other dependencies to operate the application. Containers work by isolating the application inside the container so that everything outside the container can be standardized.
