Docker on Ubuntu20: Simplify development

  • April 16, 2024
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Docker is a platfrom that is used by developers to run applications in containers and ubuntu20 provided several improvements such as long term support(LTS) for docker deployments that too over long period.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main issue with docker comes when integrating various containers and in ubuntu20 is there lot of bug fixes to be done while integrating the software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem it solved was when I was developing a blog application using springboot and was using ubuntu20,during that there were various components that needed to be isolated from each other and docker helped in solving that problem and benefit is that it made developing such applications much easier

Docker is a great way to compartmentalize and deploy

  • August 10, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Docker allows engineers to deploy software faster and safer. Docker is a platform that allows engineers to convert existing legacy software into containers. This cuts costs on deployments as well as simplifies support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Docker containers must be built locally unless funding is set aside to use the Docker only registry. This only applies to custom containers and builds. This used to be a free service.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Docker solves the problems of complex software prerequisites and challenges deploying to multiple systems. Docker allows different systems to run the same software in the exact same configurations.

It's light and works well

  • January 22, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It works well even not having a UI, just used the Portainer and could manage it better in that way, and it's easy to install
What do you dislike about the product?
The UI interface could be a good improvement, and it's hard to understand at the beggining, but it's normal
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I had to work with several development environments and the docker allows that in a pratical way

Simple and Straightforward Container Platform for Ubuntu

  • January 21, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Docker can be easily set up on Ubuntu 20.04 via their official guide. Docker Compose is also integrated, making it simple to compose your container images. It also allows uploading the composed image to the Docker Hub cloud repository.
What do you dislike about the product?
The images and artifacts that are compiled are not cleared automatically and begin hogging up storage space on the system soon. It can be manually pruned, but an option to automate it at a specific frequency would be appreciated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Docker on Ubuntu 20 provides a platform for containers to run which makes it easier to ensure that your applications are portable and can be deployed on various systems that can run docker, without worrying about the underlying components and OS configuration.

Relatively simple containerization

  • January 20, 2023
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The Yaml config files are really flexible and can be scripted to do just about anything.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting the build process set up to be secure is a painful experience. In the end, you need a good build automation and vulnerability scanning package to go along with it to avoid embarrassing security failures like keys in your log files.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Needed to refactor a monolithic app into microservices. It worked quite well for this and served as both an efficient testbed and easily upgraded and maintained production system.

Amazing software to host various applications

  • August 31, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about docker is we can create isolated environments and we can run different applications individually without affecting each other. Easy to communicate between various containers and we will have almost any package available in the docker hub. Basically whatever we develop on our system will work everywhere with the help of docker services.
What do you dislike about the product?
Without basic knowledge, we can not work with docker. Docker doesn't have a User interface, unlike windows. It is easier to manage the docker container on GUI than on the command tool. Though docker has released the docker desktop it is difficult to install and not smooth as in windows GUI. So most of the users use docker on the Ubuntu terminal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
After I completed any development I will host the service on docker to test the application. As I work with machine learning model developments it is easy to test it on docker as they have many dependency issues if we run it locally. It is easy to share with various teams within the organisation for hosting and testing the application. We can even host the service outside the organisation by opening a particular port.

Easy way to use Docker

  • June 28, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Docker is first tech to use container. There are many other container tech but Docker is first choice. On Ubuntu Docker installation is very easy. Docker with DOcker compose and docker can be used on ubuntu
What do you dislike about the product?
Noting to dislike. Installation is easy. But if youa re new to docker world then it can be confusing with some of the commands. There should be one click option to do installation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Docker on ubuntu is nothing new. Ubuntu 20 makes installation easy. Earlier ubuntu versions you had to add the docker repo in ubuntu. the add the gpg key. there is no need of all that now.

What do you like best about the product?
one of the best tools in terms of cost and minimal time of deployment and security because of apps running on the containers which are isolated and segregated from each other

following are the general things that I dislike the most in docker is their cross-platform issue and another is persistent data storage which is complex in docker

microservices are deployed on docker containers in it like debezium and other exporters which we use in monitoring are running on it. visualization of logs in the container is easy

Ubuntu Docker

  • April 18, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We use docker daily in our office life, and it is much better in terms of dependencies, The best part of docker on ubuntu 20 is, that we can run the docker images just like that.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could not get any disadvantage or unlike regarding this, for me, everything is working perfectly till now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use our own docker or Kubernetes to deploy our micro-services and we always used ubuntu images to workaround, to resolve any issue related to this, we found the solution easily on ubuntu, docker, or Kubernetes community
