•
The Docker technology uses the Linux kernel and its features to isolate processes
so they can run independently.
•
Docker is a tool that makes it easier to deploy and execute applications by using
containers.
•
A container does not just hold the application itself but also all of the resources
required by the application during runtime.
•
Thanks to the container technology, the gateway system can be rapidly extended by
adding customer-specific applications.
