Why learn Docker?

Docker is a program used to run software packages known as containers. Containers bundle their own application, tools, libraries and configuration files and are isolated from each other. Running software applications in containers instead of virtual machines is gathering momentum in the IT world. Containerization is thought to be one of the fastest growing technologies in the software industry’s recent history. At the crux of it lies Docker, a platform that allows users to pack, distribute and manage applications within containers with ease. To explain further, it is an open-source project that automates the deployment of applications inside software containers.

Over 700 million Docker containers are in use today, with over 10000 companies adopting Docker technology. Docker currently represents 83% of all containers in use. Containers enable a developer to package up an application with all of the parts, dependencies and libraries it requires, and ship it out as one single package. In this way, the developer can be assured that the application will operate other Linux machines even when the customized settings on the machine differ from the one used to write and test the code on.

Benefits:

Docker is a tool designed to enable the creation, deployment, and running of applications by use of containers. It offers a multitude of benefits to both individuals and organizations,

Learning Docker helps software developers:

  • Makes it easier for you to develop software in a cross-platform environment
  • Enables convenient distribution or deployment of an application
  • Provides a boost to your market value as a DevOps professional
  • A DevOps professional can earn an average of $91251, as per PayScale.com

Docker training also has certain organizational benefits:

  • Organizations can build a container image and use that same image for every step of the deployment process.
  • Available for multiple cloud platforms including, Amazon Web Services and Google Compute Platform
  • Dramatically reduced infrastructure due to the adoption of Docker leads to incredible savings

One of the biggest advantages of a Docker-based environment for an organization is its standardization. It eliminates the compatibility problem once and for all. Parity in terms of Docker allows your images to run the same regardless of the machine that it's being run on, giving companies and individuals more flexibility. Parity also means the production infrastructure will be more reliable and easier to maintain.

Containerization is in great demand in the software industry given the multiple benefits it has for both the individual developer and the organizations that use it.  Sign up for a Docker training course today.
