Deploy and run A&AS within a Docker containerized environment.

Docker is a software platform that simplifies the process of building, running, managing, and distributing software applications. It does this by virtualizing the operating system of the computer on which it is installed and running. Docker provides the ability to package and run an application in an isolated environment called a container.

Some important benefits of Docker:

• Portability: Once you have tested the containerized application, you can deploy it in any other system where the Docker is running, and the application will perform exactly as it did when it was tested.
• It abstracts the complexity of updating the Operating System
• It can be deployed on premise, cloud, or public clouds.

Use the procedures detailed in the following sections to deploy and manage A&AS using Docker.
