Overall Satisfaction with Docker

We are using docker to create Amazon ec2 instance images across the entire company. The major benefit of using docker is due to the speed of creating the images so that we can minimize the wait team for our associates to start their work. Apart from that Docker is also very easy to use.
  • Speed
  • Easy
  • Well supported
  • Not autostart on computer
  • More docs
  • More training tutorials
  • Quick
  • Stable
  • Easy to use
  • Save time
  • Reduce setup work
  • Small learning curve
The reason why we are still using Docker right now is due to that is the best among its peers and suits our needs the best. However, the trend we foresee for the future might indicate Amazon lambda could potentially fit our needs to code enviornmentless in the near future.

AWS Lambda, Amazon EMR (Elastic MapReduce), Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service), Amazon EC2 Auto Scaling
If you have a certain environment need to be set up every time you use Amazon ec2 instance or any other cloud computing tools, it is very convenient to use docker to quickly get the instance set up and ready to work. Another usage would be set up if for Jenkin pipeline.
