"The monopoly in contanerization."
What do you like best about Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise)?

Docker is a platform that can wear multiple hats.

1) They can provide developers with isolated development environments: Handling multiple conflicting dependencies , languages and libraries is a nightmare, one tool which we wish to run will require Phantom JS version 1.0 and another might require 2.0 and we might have to run these two tools at the same time, but using the docker platform helps us isolate the development environments and it enables us to run these two tools simultaneously and painlessly.

2) It works in my machine, It should work everywhere : If I containerize my application and if I give it to another person, Docker guarantees that my code will work as intended with zero setup. This peace of mind is an asset to every developer. It will scale to infinity easily.

3) App security: Even if malicious actors try to compromise the application security, docker provides isolated environments and other so these actors can not cause much damage. This gives peace of mind as a functional property.

Nothing is better than free and docker is absolutely free to use. It has a vibrant developer community and every single line of code is available for public audit. The docker platform's command line interface is feature rich, it helps us with container networking, container storage management and deployment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
