Containers

Docker is a containerization and manager tool. Docker is a kind of isolated space where an application runs by using system resources. An alternative to Docker is Podman.

Tips

Extract image locally

To extract a container’s image locally (e.g. using Docker) the following can be used:

docker export $CONTAINER_NAME > output.tar

Alternatively, and using the $IMAGE_ID we can do:

docker save $IMAGE_ID$ > output.tar
