Containerization is increasingly popular because containers are:

• Flexible: Even the most complex applications can be containerized.
• Lightweight: Containers leverage and share the host kernel.
• Interchangeable: You can deploy updates and upgrades on-the-fly.
• Portable: You can build locally, deploy to the cloud, and run anywhere.
• Scalable: You can increase and automatically distribute container replicas.
• Stackable: You can stack services vertically and on-the-fly.
