Docker

Container runtime that changed deployment

DevOps / Infrastructure · Freemium · 5.7k

What's Good

Containers are the universal deployment unit. Dockerfile syntax is approachable. Docker Compose handles multi-container development. The ecosystem is massive.

The Catch

Resource overhead compared to native. Security requires attention. Desktop licensing changes affected teams. Image size management is ongoing work.

Verdict

Containers are table stakes; Docker is how most start.
