Docker packages your app and its dependencies into a lightweight container that runs the same on a laptop, server, or cloud. You build an image once and run it anywhere, which removes “works on my machine” issues and speeds setup, testing, and releases.
It’s helpful when you need consistent dev/test/prod environments, faster CI/CD, clean dependency isolation, microservices, quick rollbacks, horizontal scaling, batch jobs, or a smooth path to the cloud.
At Imaga, we craft lean multi-stage Dockerfiles, use Compose for local stacks, push to secure registries, enable image scanning and secrets, and deploy containers to Kubernetes with autoscaling and monitoring.
