Docker Essentials: Containerization for Developers and DevOps

This Docker course is designed to help learners understand the fundamentals and real-world applications of containerization using Docker. Through hands-on labs, students will learn how to package applications into containers, manage container lifecycles, work with Docker images, and build efficient, reproducible development environments. The course is ideal for developers, DevOps engineers, and system administrators looking to integrate Docker into their workflows.

By the end of the course, students will have practical experience building, running, and deploying containerized applications and be prepared to work with container orchestration systems like Kubernetes.
