Containers

Containers

Docker containers are lightweight, stand-alone, executable packages that include everything needed to run a piece of software, including the code, runtime, system tools, libraries, and settings. They are isolated from each other and the host system, ensuring that the software runs consistently across any environment. Docker containers virtualize the operating system, allowing multiple workloads to run on a single OS instance, efficiently utilizing system resources and simplifying software delivery.
