Docker is a tool designed to make it easier to create, deploy, and run
55
applications by using containers. Containers allow a developer to package
6-
up an application with all of the parts it needs, like libraries and other
7-
dependencies, and ship it all out as a single package.

9-
With the help of containers, the developer can rest assured that
10-
the application will run on other machines regardless of any
11-
customized settings his machine might have that could differ from the
12-
machine used for writing and testing the code.

Unlike a virtual machine, rather than creating a whole virtual operating
15-
system, Docker allows applications to use the same kernel as the system
16-
that they're running on and only requires applications being shipped
17-
with things not already running on the host computer. This gives a
18-
significant performance boost and reduces the size of the application.
