14. Why use Docker?
• Package an application with it’s dependencies
• Dev environment behaves exactly like production
• Less overhead means more deployments on a server
• Deploy the same container in different clouds
• Not just for cloud computing
• Docker has standardized container formats
• It’s open source 

15. Some other Docker Use Cases
• Simulate deployed environment during
development
– Each container simulates a machine
• Share containers between developers
– Database containers with sample data
• Also use in the (automated) QA environment
– Build containers with compilers and libraries
• Also use in the CI environment
