    Containers Attracting Attention from Developers

    Containers are formula-based, which means that any user acquainted with the formula can get an identical containerized runtime regardless of the OS the user works on.

    Containers are expected to continue to rise paradoxically in the next decade. When it comes to statefulness, speed, and portability, containers offer clear advantages and positive points that are pushing forward to popularity. 

    FREMONT, CA: Several drawbacks caused by VMs have left development teams continuously looking for alternatives and containers with the features of stealth, untraceability, and portability acts the role of a knight in shining armor.  

    Containers Are Fast:

    Containers can boot quickly, allowing developers to iterate on code much faster than with a VM. They are typically faster to fabricate than a VM as container recipes can be written to leverage advantage of layer caching.

    Containers Are Stateless:

    When looked through positive lenses, stateless containers will execute identically for any user on any machine. Upgrading a container will never happen, and instead, the old one is replaced by a clean new one. However, stateful applications need no rethought before it has been containerized.

    Containers Are Portable:

    Containers are formula-based, which means that any user acquainted with the formula can get an identical containerized runtime regardless of the OS the user works on. The formula-based feature makes checking code in other branches or running tests on different configurations simpler and mostly error-less.

    Many organizations put up the container formula file in the source code repository so that its version can be tracked and can be studied by the CI system. It makes changes to the data and allows the CI system to build the code and container images simultaneously; simplifying the task of checking the latest assembly.

    Containers Aren’t Perfect:

    A container is right for every project—is a misconception. From a technical point-of-view, containers are very new, and there is a lot that is still changing. It can create excitement for developers, but for IT teams that have to support them, it poses a challenge.

    The speed, consistency, and portability of the containers are the qualities that developers demand. The adoption also will occur sooner than possible because it brings faster releases and greater development efficiency resulting in more competitive differentiation.
