Question - Where all do you think Docker is being used?
Answer -
When asked such a question, respond by talking about applications of Docker. Docker is being used in the following areas:
- Simplifying configuration: Docker lets you put your environment and configuration into code and deploy it.
- Code Pipeline Management: There are different systems used for development and production. As the code travels from development to testing to production, it goes through a difference in the environment. Docker helps in maintaining the code pipeline consistency.
- Developer Productivity: Using Docker for development gives us two things – We’re closer to production and development environment is built faster.
- Application Isolation: As containers are applications wrapped together with all dependencies, your apps are isolated. They can work by themselves on any hardware that supports Docker.
- Debugging Capabilities: Docker supports various debugging tools that are not specific to containers but work well with containers.
- Multi-tenancy: Docker lets you have multi-tenant applications avoiding redundancy in your codes and deployments.
- Rapid Deployment: Docker eliminates the need to boost an entire OS from scratch, reducing the deployment time.
