Containerization with Docker: Simplifying Application Deployment Containerization is a lightweight form of virtualization that allows you to package an application and its dependencies (libraries, binaries, configurations) into a single unit, known as a container . Containers are portable, isolated, and can be run on any system, making them ideal for deploying applications consistently across different environments (development, staging, production). Docker is the most widely used platform for creating, managing, and running containers. It simplifies the process of containerization, allowing developers to package applications in a way that eliminates compatibility issues between different systems. Why Use Docker and Containerization? Portability : Containers include everything the application needs to run, ensuring that it behaves consistently across different environments. A containerized app will work the same way on a developer’s local machine, a test server, or producti...
