کتاب Docker in action اثر Jeff Nickoloffغیر اصلDocker in action

Regardless of an application’s size, whether it be a compact program or a complex system with numerous interconnected parts, packaging and distributing the software in a consistent and manageable way is crucial. As applications grow in scale and complexity, with large-scale systems potentially comprising thousands of individual components, the challenges of installation, maintenance, and removal become increasingly daunting. Docker addresses these challenges by encapsulating all application components, along with their dependencies on other software or infrastructure, into a standardized unit called a container. This containerization approach keeps the application package tidy and self-contained, simplifying deployment and management even for the most intricate multi-service systems
