Timeline

Continuous integration (CI) is a practice where developers integrate tested code into a shared branch several times per day.

Continuous delivery (CD) is the next phase of continuous integration (CI) where we also make sure to package the code in a release and store it somewhere - preferably, in an artifact repository. Lastly, Continuous deployment (CD) takes continuous delivery (CD) to the next level by directly deploying our releases to the world.

Docker is an engine that allows you to run containers. Containers are packages of software that can run reliably in different environments. Containers include everything needed to run the application. Containers are lightweight in comparison to virtual machines. A Dockerfile is a text document that contains all the commands and instructions necessary to build a Docker Image. A Docker image is an executable package comprised of code, dependencies, libraries, a runtime, environment variables, and configuration files. A Docker container is a runtime instance of a Docker Image.
