Docker is the world’s most popular containerization platform serving 20+ million developers and powering over 13 million container image repositories. Released as Docker Engine v29 in November 2025, Docker provides comprehensive solutions including Docker Desktop with bi-weekly releases, Docker Hub registry with consumption-based pricing, Docker Build Cloud with remote BuildKit execution, and Docker Scout for software supply chain security with real-time SBOM analysis. With native Kubernetes integration, Docker Compose for multi-container orchestration, and enhanced container isolation security, Docker accelerates development from local workstations to production deployment.
