Container

A lightweight and portable executable image that contains software and all of its dependencies. Containers decouple applications from underlying host infrastructure to make deployment easier in different cloud or OS environments, and for easier scaling. The applications that run inside containers are called containerized applications. The process of bundling these applications and their dependencies into a container image is called containerization.
