Overall Satisfaction with Docker

Docker is used to build applications in a faster and efficient and reliable way. It is used across different teams and departments across the organisation. It solves one of the critical challenges in building IT solutions , "time to market". It helps teams in prototyping the solutions much faster and also makes sure there are no surprises at the higher environments like Staging or Production.
  • Build containers in a secure, reliable and faster way
  • Manager multiple versions of the containers and images efficiently
  • Manage the images on the cloud (hub) and share seamlessly
  • Deployment pipelines are efficient and less time consuming
  • Docker hub image retention policy can be relaxed
  • Docker hub policies can be more developer friendly
  • Docker CLI help section can be improved
  • Image and container storage (local) management can be optimized
  • Docker Hub
  • Docker CLI features
  • Certified images that are published by Docker
  • With Docker adoption, were able to reduce 40% of the time taken to complete workspace setup
  • Provided the environment packaging / configurability capability which enabled resource sharing and interoperability across teams
  • Were able to leverage off the shelf images provided by leading product companies which increased reliability and security exponently
The features and capabilities provided by Docker are incomparable and much vast in nature. Docker is much light weight and easy to onboard into the tech stack. It is also well supported by Container orchestration systems like Kubernetes which will be critical when applications are to be scaled and maintained at enterprise level.

Docker is the market leader in Containerisation and its best used to build applications in a faster, efficient and reliable way. It helps teams in prototyping the solutions much faster. Containers can be shipped and shared across different teams, different environments and even for different platforms and applications. It is well suited for developing micro-service based applications and also state-less applications. Monoliths or state critical applications are less appropriate but can be developed provided "support systems" are available and a suitable architecture is designed.
