Frequently Asked Questions
What are the system requirements for deploying Docker?
The Linux system requirements for deploying Docker are as follows. For Mac and Windows requirements, see the Docker documentation.
64-bit kernel and CPU support for virtualization. KVM virtualization support. Follow the KVM virtualization support instructions to check if the KVM kernel modules are enabled and how to provide access to the KVM device. QEMU must be version 5.2 or later. We recommend upgrading to the latest version. systemd init system. Gnome, KDE, or MATE Desktop environment. For many Linux distros, the Gnome environment does not support tray icons. To add support for tray icons, you need to install a Gnome extension. At least 4 GB of RAM. Enable configuring ID mapping in user namespaces. Recommended: Initialize pass for credentials management.
What are the common use cases for Docker?
Docker, a platform that allows you to package applications into “containers,” has become a popular option in software development and deployment, with a wide range of use cases. Here are some of the most prevalent:
Developing and testing applications Deploying microservices Running legacy applications Creating continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines Managing workloads in the cloud Create sandboxed environments for running untrusted code
What are popular alternatives to Docker?
Docker is a widely used platform for containerization, but there are several alternatives:
Podman, Buildah, Rkt (pronounced “rocket”), LXD (Linux Containers Daemon), Containerd, CRI-O (Container Runtime Interface for OpenShift), and Singularity.
What query language does Docker use?
Docker does not use a query language in the traditional sense. Docker provides a command-line interface (CLI) that allows users to interact with the Docker Engine, the core component responsible for building, running, and managing containers. Instead of a query language, Docker commands are used to perform various actions and queries related to containerized applications.
Here are some common Docker commands: docker run: Used to run a command in a new container. docker ps: Lists the running containers. docker images: Lists the available images on the local machine. docker build: Builds a Docker image from a Dockerfile. docker exec: Runs a command in a running container. Docker-compose: Manages multi-container applications using a YAML file to define services, networks, and volumes.
