Docker
Software container technology
Docker is software that packages applications into standardized units called containers, allowing them to run consistently across different computing environments.
Developers use Docker to ensure code works the same way in development, testing, and production: We deploy everything in Docker containers now.
The technology revolutionized software deployment in the 2010s. (Lowercase docker is a dockworker.)
