Docker revolutionized the way engineers build software. By bundling an application together with all its dependencies in a portable "container" that can be deployed almost anywhere, Docker makes it possible to manage applications without creating custom infrastructures. Free, open source, and battle-tested, Docker has quickly become must-know technology for developers and administrators.
