Mastering Containerization: A Lightweight Virtualization Method

Containerization is a lightweight virtualization method that packages apps & dependencies into single units called containers. Containers share host OS kernel, making them resource-efficient & scalable.

Containerization Basics

Introduction:
Containerization is a lightweight virtualization method that packages an application and its dependencies into a single unit, called a container.  Unlike virtual machines (VMs) which virtualize the entire operating system, containers share the host OS kernel, making them significantly more resource-efficient. This allows for faster deployment and improved scalability.
Prerequisites:
Before working with containers, you'll need a container runtime engine like Docker.  Docker is the most popular choice and provides tools to build, run, and manage containers....
