What is Docker?

During our last project delivery, which is coming to a successful end, we came across a new concept of docker, which helped us a lot with build and deployment of our applications.

Docker is a tool designed to make it easier to create, deploy, and run applications with the help of containers. Containers allow developers to package up an application with all of the parts it needs, such as libraries and other dependencies including code, runtime, system tools, system libraries, database – anything that can be installed on a server, and ship it all out as one package. Docker containers:
• Have everything that is needed to run application
• Are created from image
• When container starts to run, a new layer on image is created.
