Docker

Docker is a platform that enables developers to create, deploy, and run applications in containers. Containers are lightweight, portable, and self-sufficient environments that include everything needed to run software: code, runtime, system tools, and libraries. Docker simplifies application deployment and scaling by ensuring consistency across multiple development, testing, and production environments. It also allows for efficient resource management and isolation, making it ideal for microservices architecture and continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines.
