What is the meaning of a container in a cloud environment? many novices are not very clear about this. In order to help you solve this problem, the following editor will explain it in detail. People with this need can come and learn. I hope you can gain something.

What do you mean by a container in a cloud environment? In English, a container is translated as "Container", which uses the same word as "container" and is interpreted as a container or box that can be loaded. For the concept of container, if replaced with a container, it will be easier to understand.

In essence, there is not much difference between "container" and "container". The difference is that the container packages the "application and its dependent package", which makes the application become a standardized component and gets rid of the tight coupling relationship with the system. can be developed, debugged and run in any mainstream system.

From the current development trend, the development of cloud container technology is changing the traditional virtual machine application and software development and deployment. In the face of the booming demand of Internet applications, the perfect combination of containers and micro-services meets the application needs of fragmented scenarios, and the development capability of PaaS platform can also be reconstructed.

The development of containers

In the past, the development and deployment of application software had many modules, complex functions, long development cycle, complex implementation process, and centralized application deployment. In the choice of platform, it is mainly based on traditional server rental, there is a tight coupling relationship between application software and platform system, and there is no requirement of application iteration and platform migration.

In recent years, with the advance of intelligent manufacturing, there are fragmented and fragmented personalized application requirements, and deployment environments are also diverse, such as virtualized servers, public clouds, private clouds and so on. The container can realize the technology of "develop once, run everywhere" by packaging applications and dependent packages, which is welcomed by users.

Advantages of containers

From the application level, container technology has two main advantages: one is "build once, run everywhere". The second is "incremental update, fast fallback". These two advantages greatly reduce the difficulty of software development and operation and maintenance, and also promote the development of continuous integration and deployment (DevOps) model.

For developers and operators, what they want most is to create or configure it all at once, which can run normally anywhere. Developers can use a standard image to build a set of development containers, and after development is complete, operators can directly use this container to deploy code.

Container service is a very subversive computer resource isolation technology, which not only costs very little to CPU and storage space, but also can be turned on and off in seconds.
