What is Docker?

DevOps

Docker — A platform for packaging applications into containers — lightweight, portable, isolated environments that include all dependencies. Essential for ML model deployment.

FAQ

Why use Docker for ML?

Docker ensures your model runs the same everywhere — development, testing, production. It packages the model, dependencies, and serving code together.

Docker vs virtual machines?

Docker containers are lighter (share the OS kernel), start in seconds, and use less resources. VMs are fully isolated but heavier.
