With Docker, one can run the entire application stack in a local development machine and deploy to production quickly without worrying how it will perform in the new environment. Following on from his last blog, Anandraj Jagadeesan from our Sydney office, provides steps to install Docker on Ubuntu Bash for Windows.ĭocker’s ability to provide applications with resource isolation, portability, consistency and support continuous integration & testing makes it a very attractive tool for every software engineer.
