Overview
Docker Community Engine on Ubuntu Server 18.04 LTS
Docker is a platform for developers and sysadmins to build, run, and share applications with containers. The use of containers to deploy applications is called containerization. Containers are not new, but their use for easily deploying applications is.
The Docker daemon (dockerd) listens for Docker API requests and manages Docker objects such as images, containers, networks, and volumes.
Docker Features Lightweight containers spin up fast and optimally use system resources Docker daemon (dockerd) manages Docker objects such as images, containers, networks, and volumes Docker registry to store Docker images REST API which specifies interfaces that programs can use to talk to the daemon and instruct it what to do Command line interface (CLI) client (the docker command) Namespaces provide a layer of isolation Control groups to limit applications to a set of resources Union file systems (UnionFS) Container format (libcontainer) Access to Docker hub public images

Highlights
- The Docker CLI uses the Docker REST API to control or interact with the Docker daemon through scripting or direct CLI commands. Many other Docker applications use the underlying API and CLI.
- Dockers portability and lightweight nature also make it easy to dynamically manage workloads, scaling up or tearing down applications and services as business needs dictate, in near real time.
- The Docker daemon (dockerd) listens for Docker API requests and manages Docker objects such as images, containers, networks, and volumes. A daemon can also communicate with other daemons to manage Docker services.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
