What is Containerization ( Container) ?

Containerization is lightweight Virtualization technology alternative to hypervisor virtualization.
Any application can be bundled in a container can run without any worries about dependencies, libraries.
Because container creates the isolated environment with all the required dependencies, libraries and binaries
to run your application with any issue, Hence you can build the package, ship the application to any
environment and run it,
So Containers are designees to run on physical servers, Virtual machines and any cloud instances.

Virtualization technology that allow us to have multiple operating systems to share a single hardware processor.
Containerization is an application-specific virtualization, because it provides application with dedicated
environments in the form of container to run on, which can be deployed and run anywhere without a dedicated
virtual machine with Operating system for each application.
Also Container was designed to solve modern problems and application management issues. so it's not a
replacement for virtualization.

Advantages of Containers

Advantages of Containers
1. Containers are isolated, doesn’t require operating system and it shares a host kernel.
So containers run on the same server and use the same resources, they do not
interact with each other because its isolated. If one application crashes, other
containers with the same application will keep running without any issue.

2. It’s a Portable and light weight operating system and it contains only the required

issues.

lightweight and start in less than a second since they do not require an operating

4. Resource efficiency since containers do not require a separate operating system, they
use less resources.
5. Improves Scalability and lowers costs-By allowing more containers in the environment
without the need for more servers, containerization increases scalability anywhere
from 10 to 100 times that of traditional VM environments.
