How does docker help in microservice architecture?

Answer»

Docker helps in many ways for microservices architecture.

  1. In a microservice architecture, there can be many different services written in different languages. So a developer might have to SETUP few services ALONG with its dependency and platform requirements. This becomes difficult with the growing number of services in an ECOSYSTEM. However, this becomes very easy if these services run inside a Docker container.
  2. Running services inside a container also give a similar setup across all the environments, i.e development, staging and production.
  3. Docker also helps in SCALING along with container orchestration.
  4. Docker helps to upgrade the underlying language very easily. We can save many man-hours.
  5. Docker helps to onboard the engineers fast.
  6. Docker also helps to reduce the dependencies on IT Teams to set up and manage the different kind of environment REQUIRED.
