With the release of UTM 6.5 that the EndianOS platform now has Docker integrated so that customers can run their own Docker containers. A Docker container is a standard unit of software that packages up code and all its dependencies so the application runs quickly and reliably from one computing environment to another (docker.com). This feature provides Endian customers unparalleled capabilities by leveraging edge computing technology that enables hybrid or remote applications or micro-services to run at the network edge. Some of the advantages of Docker include (but are not limited to):
Requires much less hardware and software resources than full-machine virtualization
Reduce network latency and provide offline access to remote applications
Increased application portability and faster software development and delivery
