| Abstract |
This research paper serves as a comprehensive exploration of Docker's
viability as a containerization solution for the Windows platform, specifically
designed to guide novice users in the field of software development and
containerization. While Docker was initially architected for Linux environments, its
expansion into the Windows realm has ignited significant interest. This study seeks to
elucidate Docker's operational efficacy on Windows, particularly emphasizing the
facilitative role of Docker Desktop in enhancing user experience.
Containerization has emerged as a cornerstone of efficient and scalable
software development, with Docker being a leading player in the space. However, its
native inclination towards Linux has often cast a shadow over its potential on other
operating systems. This research is a stride towards shedding light on Docker's
capabilities on Windows, seeking to dispel any preconceived notions, and positioning
Docker on Windows as a valuable tool for beginners.
The study offers a comparative performance analysis between Docker on
Linux and Docker on Windows, but the emphasis is more on real-world usage,
accessibility, and user experience. Docker Desktop's significant role in facilitating a
user-friendly environment is scrutinized, and practical examples are provided to assist
beginners in understanding and implementing Docker-based solutions on Windows.
A noteworthy portion of this research is dedicated to demonstrating practical
Docker usage scenarios on Windows. These demonstrations, grounded in real-life
scenarios, significantly contribute to making this study an accessible guide for
beginners. It stands as a valuable resource for educational institutions fostering
budding software developers and individuals venturing into the domain of
containerization.
In conclusion, this research forms a foundational platform for future studies,
emphasizing Docker's versatility across different operating systems, with a spotlight
on Docker on Windows and Docker Desktop. It contributes insightful findings
beneficial for educators, fledgling developers, and anyone initiating their journey into
containerization. |
