Containers
First, let’s define the similarities and differences between Docker and virtual machines.
Docker containers and virtual machines are both ways of deploying applications inside environments that are isolated from the underlying hardware. The chief difference is the level of isolation.
With a container runtime like Docker, your application is sandboxed inside of the isolation features that a container provides, but still shares the same kernel as other containers on the same host. As a result, processes running inside containers are visible from the host system.
In contrast, with a virtual machine, everything running inside the VM is independent of the host operating system, or hypervisor.
