5 Containers & Microservices
Fully functional, portable, container-based service at
the push of a button
Deploys apps consistently across internal/private,
public, or hybrid IT and cloud environments
No lock-in

Open source project defining infrastructure

operational policies for container-based
application deployment

For Developers to get their application running

locally and deployed in production
Offers point-and-click method to configure an
app, write application code, and deploy
Shipped
 Container != Microservices
But..
They are often deployed together
Microservice is an architecture
Containers are a technology

A packaging & portability layer for

code/apps/stuff.
Your code Should deploy with
exactly the same
Your startup scripts Container behavior on any
host/VM that can run
Code dependencies containers.
