Docker

Your key to efficient application delivery and management. Find out how we use Docker in our company to achieve greater flexibility, security and scalability. Discover our best practices and case studies related to Docker.

What is Docker?

Docker is a containerization platform that has changed the way we deliver and manage applications. Docker containers are isolated environments that contain the entire application and its dependencies, which allows you to package the application once and move it between different environments without having to change the code. This solution is unique because of its portability and flexibility. However, what makes Docker so special?

Docker allows you to package your application once and move it between different environments. This means that you can run your applications on your laptop, cloud server or local data center, and the application will work identically everywhere. With Docker, you can deploy applications in no time. It's just as easy to scale your app up or down, so you can adjust resources to your workload in real time. Each Docker container is isolated from the others, which means applications do not affect each other. This ensures security and stability as conflicts between applications are virtually eliminated.

The main advantages of Docker


Flexibility and Portability

Docker allows you to package an application and all its dependencies into a unit called a container. Containers are portable and can run on a variety of platforms and environments, such as Linux and Windows, and public and private clouds. This means that the application works identically regardless of where it is launched. This makes it much easier to move your app between development, test, and production environments.

Support for Microservices and Containerization of Monolithic Applications

Docker is an ideal tool for implementing microservices that allow you to break down your application into smaller, independent parts. However, Docker can also be used to containerize monolithic applications, which makes it easier to manage and scale large applications in a modular way.

Scalability to Dimension

Docker allows you to easily scale your application depending on the load. You can start and stop containers in real time, adapting resources to the needs of the application. This means you can save on infrastructure costs by scaling resources only when needed, resulting in greater efficiency and cost savings.

Isolation and Application Security

Docker provides application isolation in containers, which means that each application runs in its own isolated environment. This eliminates potential conflicts between applications and minimizes security risks. Docker containers are separated from each other, which means that any failure of one application does not negatively affect the rest of the system.

Speed and Efficiency of Implementations

Docker speeds up the application deployment process. By packaging the application and its dependencies once in a container, the time needed to configure the environment and troubleshoot dependencies is significantly reduced. Developers can quickly build and test applications locally and then move them to production servers in a highly efficient manner.

Easy Setup and Management

Docker allows you to define application configuration in Dockerfiles. This means that all configuration is kept in the application code, making it easier to manage and track configuration changes. Docker Compose, a tool for defining multi-container applications, allows you to create complex development environments with several containers with one command.
