Docker allows developers to create, package, and deploy applications as lightweight containers, ensuring application consistency across various environments and enabling smoother collaboration in development workflows.
The inception of Docker dates back to 2010, where it began as an internal project at dotCloud. It has since matured into a key component of modern DevOps practices.
Docker architecture comprises a server-side application known as the Docker daemon, which manages containers, and a client-side, the Docker CLI, which allows interaction with the daemon.
In the context of Docker, networking is crucial for container communication and external access, allowing applications to remain modular with inter-container networking capabilities and service discovery.
