Docker vs Kubernates

Docker and Kubernetes are two of the most popular container orchestration platforms. They are both open source and have a large community of users and developers.

Docker is the older of the two platforms and has been around since 2013. It is a lightweight platform that is easy to install and use. Docker containers can be run on any Linux server.

Kubernetes is a more complex platform that was originally developed by Google. It is designed to run on a cluster of servers and can be used to manage a large number of containers.

Both Docker and Kubernetes have their own strengths and weaknesses. Docker is simpler to use and is more suited for development and testing environments. Kubernetes is more complex but is more scalable and can be used for production deployments.
