Q8. How is a Docker Container Different from a Hypervisor?
A. In a Hypervisor environment we first create Virtual Machine and then install an Operating System on it. After that we deploy the application. The virtual machine may also be installed on different hardware configurations. In a Docker environment, we just deploy the application in Docker. There is no OS layer in this environment. We specify libraries, and rest of the kernels provided by Docker Engine. In a way, Docker container and hypervisor are complete mantuary to each other.
