Docker is an open platform that helps developers, testers, and Ops team to develop, test, and deploy containers to different environments faster and in an efficient manner. Multiple containers can be hosted in one virtual machine so: It reduces the need to configure virtual machines, Containers are hosted in isolation and they cannot affect each other.
