Docker is a popular open-source platform for building, shipping, and running applications in containers. It provides an efficient way to package and deploy software applications on Linux servers, making it a valuable tool for developers, system administrators, and IT professionals.
To install Docker on a Linux server using apt, run the following command: sudo apt install docker.io
Alternatively, to install it using yum, run: sudo yum install docker
Once Docker is installed, you can create a new container using the docker run command, specifying the desired image and any required options. You can also build your own Docker images using a Dockerfile, and manage images and containers using various Docker commands.
For more information on how to use Docker, including advanced configuration and deployment options, consult the official documentation or online tutorials.
