A Docker container is a lightweight, portable unit of software that packages an application and its dependencies, ensuring it runs consistently across different environments. Containers use the host operating system's kernel, making them more efficient than virtual machines. They are isolated from each other and the host, which enhances security and reliability. Docker containers can be easily created, managed, and deployed using the Docker platform, streamlining the development, testing, and deployment process for applications.
