4. Introduction to Docker
• It is a tool used to create, deploy and run applications by using containers.
• Containers allows developers to package up an application with all the parts it
needs.
• Containers are isolated from one another and bundle their own software, libraries
and configuration file.

5. Introduction to Docker
• Docker is a set of platforms as a service (PaaS) products that use the Operating
system level visualization to deliver software in packages called containers.
• Containers are isolated from one another and bundle their own software,
libraries, and configuration files; they can communicate with each other through
well-defined channels.
• All containers are run by a single operating system kernel and therefore use fewer
resources than a virtual machine.

6. Difference between Docker Containers
and Virtual Machines
• 1. Docker Containers
• Docker Containers contain binaries, libraries and configuration files along with
the application itself.
• They don’t contain a guest OS for each container and rely on the underlying OS
kernel, which makes the containers lightweight.
• Containers share resources with other containers in the same host
OS and provide OS level process isolation.

7. Difference between Docker Containers
and Virtual Machines
• 2. Virtual Machines
• Virtual Machines (VMs) run on Hypervisors, which allow multiple Virtual
Machines to run on a single Machine along with its own operating system.
• Each VM has its own copy of an operating system along with the application and
necessary binaries, which makes it significantly larger and it requires more
resources.
• They provide Hardware-level process isolation and are slow to boot.

9. Difference between Docker Containers
and Virtual Machines
• 2. Virtual Machines
• Virtual Machines (VMs) run on Hypervisors, which allow multiple Virtual
Machines to run on a single Machine along with its own operating system.
• Each VM has its own copy of an operating system along with the application and
necessary binaries, which makes it significantly larger and it requires more
resources.
• They provide Hardware-level process isolation and are slow to boot.

10. Uses of Docker Containers
• Running multiple workloads on fewer resources.
• Isolating and segregating applications.
• Standardizing environments to ensure consistency across development and release
cycles.
• Streamlining the development lifecycle and supporting CI/CD workflows.
• Developing highly portable workloads that can run on multi-cloud platforms.
• Additionally, it is used as:
• A cost-effective alternative to virtual machines.
• A version control system for an application.

11. Advantages
• Resource Efficiency: Process level isolation and usage of the container host’s
kernel is more efficient when compared to virtualizing an entire hardware server.
• Portability: All the dependencies for an application are bundled in the container.
This means they can be easily moved between development, test, and production
environments.
• Continuous Deployment and Testing: The ability to have consistent
environments and flexibility with patching has made Docker a great choice for
teams that want to move from waterfall to the modern DevOps approach to
software delivery.

12. Docker architecture
• Docker follows Client-Server architecture, which includes the three main
components that are Docker Client, Docker Host, and Docker Registry.

13. What is Docker daemon?
• Docker daemon runs on the host operating system. It is responsible for running
containers to manage docker services. Docker daemon communicates with other
daemons. It offers various Docker objects such as images, containers, networking,
and storage.
13

14. 1.Docker Client
• Docker client uses commands and REST APIs to communicate with the Docker
Daemon (Server). When a client runs any docker command on the docker client
terminal, the client terminal sends these docker commands to the Docker daemon.
Docker daemon receives these commands from the docker client in the form of
command and REST API's request.

15. Docker Host & Docker Registry
• 2. Docker Host
• Docker Host is used to provide an environment to execute and run applications. It
contains the docker daemon, images, containers, networks, and storage.
• 3. Docker Registry
• Docker Registry manages and stores the Docker images.
• There are two types of registries in the Docker -
• Pubic Registry - Public Registry is also called as Docker hub.
