Containers: Solving Dependency, Isolation, and Portability Issues. Immutable, platform-independent, and consistent.
Created with
1. What problems do containers help solve for developers and operators?
Dependency problems
Isolation problems
Configuration drift
Portability issues
2. How do containers address dependency problems?
By including all the software and libraries needed for the application to run
By limiting their access and usage of system resources
By being immutable
By providing platform independence
3. What is the benefit of containers running in their own namespaces and cgroups?
Preventing interference with other containers or the host system
Ensuring there are no missing or incompatible components
Making it hard to reproduce the same environment for testing
Ensuring consistency in the system configuration
4. Why do containers being immutable ensure consistency?
Because they do not change once created
Because they include all the necessary software and libraries
Because they run in their own namespaces and cgroups
Because they are platform-independent
5. What problem do containers help solve regarding portability?
Portability issues
Dependency problems
No isolation
Configuration drift
6. What is the main advantage of containers being platform-independent?
They can run on any system that supports Docker
They limit their access and usage of system resources
They ensure no missing or incompatible components
They do not change once created
7. How do containers prevent applications from interfering with each other's resources?
By running in their own namespaces and cgroups
By including all necessary software and libraries
By being immutable
By providing platform independence
8. What problem does configuration drift cause for developers and operators?
Making it hard to reproduce the same environment for testing
Dependency problems
No isolation
Portability issues
9. What benefit do containers provide in terms of dependency management?
Including all the software and libraries needed for the application to run
Preventing interference with other containers or the host system
Ensuring there are no missing or incompatible components
Ensuring consistency in the system configuration
10. What is the significance of containers being platform-independent?
They can run on any system that supports Docker
They limit their access and usage of system resources
They do not change once created
They run in their own namespaces and cgroups
