Docker is an open platform for developing, shipping, and running applications.
|
||
|
||
Docker allows you to separate your applications from your infrastructure so you
|
||
can deliver software quickly. With Docker, you can manage your infrastructure in
|
||
the same ways you manage your applications.
|
||
|
||
By taking advantage of Docker’s
|
||
methodologies for shipping, testing, and deploying code quickly, you can
|
||
significantly reduce the delay between writing code and running it in production.
|
||
|
||
You can download and install Docker on multiple platforms. Refer to the following
|
||
section and choose the best installation path for you.
