Docker Container History
●
2013 – Docker
– The most popular and widely used container
management system as of now
– It was developed as an internal project at a company
called dotCloud and later renamed to Docker
– Docker used LXC at the initial stages and later replaced
LXC with it’s own library called libcontainer
– Unlike any other container platform, Docker introduced
an entire ecosystem for managing containers. (a highly
efficient, layered container image model, a global and
local container registries, a clean REST API, a CLI)
– Docker's container cluster management solution is
called Docker Swarm
