Docker Crash Course #3 - Images & Containers
Description: In this video, you will learn about the two foundational concepts of Docker: images and containers. What are images? Images are read-only templates that contain instructions for creating containers. They are stored in a Docker registry, such as Docker Hub, and can be downloaded and used to create new containers. What are containers? Containers are lightweight, isolated environments that run on a host machine. They contain everything an application needs to run, including code, runtime, system tools, system libraries, and settings. Containers are created from images, and they can be started, stopped, moved, and deleted. How do images and containers work together? Images are used to create containers. When you run a Docker image, Docker creates a new container from the image. The container is a running instance of the image. What you'll learn: What are Docker images? What are Docker containers?
