This document summarizes Docker, an open-source containerization platform. It discusses Docker's rapid growth since its launch 1 year prior, with over 370 contributors and 1 million downloads. Docker addresses the challenge of running applications across different environments by allowing applications and their dependencies to run in isolated containers that can be moved between servers. This eliminates inconsistencies between development and production environments. The document outlines benefits of Docker for developers, operations teams, and its role in microservices architecture.
