Docker 101
In this session we will get acquainted with Docker. We will discuss what docker is, how to install it, and how to start using Docker. We will also explore some of the benefits of containerizing your applications.
Containers are taking over the world. Containers provide a means to have hermatic builds of your software, allowing for truly immutable testing, and delivery of your software. Docker is one of many containerization technologies, and in this session we will take a brief look at Docker and what it has to offer.
