Docker packages AI applications and their dependencies into containers that run consistently across different computers.
How It Works
Docker creates a lightweight wrapper around your AI model and everything it needs to run. This container works the same way on your laptop, a server, or the cloud.
Think of it like shipping containers - standardized boxes that move easily between trucks, ships, and trains.
Why It Matters
Docker solves the "it works on my machine" problem. AI models often need specific software versions and settings. Docker bundles everything together so the model runs anywhere.
Most AI deployment uses Docker because it makes scaling and managing models much easier.
