In this session, we will look at containers and Docker. First of all, we will look at how they work and what benefits they provide, as removing some of the hype and “magic” makes it easier to use them. Once we have covered that, we will have a look at how to create container images and start containers. There is a lot to learn about containers, and all of it will definitely not fit into a single session. However, the basics you get from this session should make it a lot easier for you to get started working with containers.
