This video is technical enough to inform while also being approachable. Very well done, thank you so much!

Probably the most complete and concise version in this topic from IBM.❤

These tutorials series are really good

One big difference between the two is the security of the host system: If you run something as root in a VM, it stays in the VM and has no effect on the host OS. You can completely hose the guest system with a botched command ran with root privileges, and the host OS is completely unaffected. However, if you run something as root in Docker, it will be run with root privileges in the host OS. And since you can set a different root password in a docker container, including no password at all, that means you can run stuff with root privileges without a root password from Docker, in a way that affects the host OS (eg. accesses, creates or modifies files in the host OS with root privileges). I'm not making that up, just search Docker's own documentation on security.

Today I had a use case - a situation where we needed to decide do we need to use a docker or a virtual machine. I need a secure environment and thus isolation was very important and we choose the VM path.

Great video, any chance of a behind the scenes as to how you create it? Love the glowing writing.

Neat and sweet. Thank you for the easy explanation.

It is also possible to use VM and then run several Docker container inside that VM.

One of the best examples to use when thinking of VMs in comparison to a Docker is: Non-executable Vs Executable, UKposts in Chrome browser Vs UKposts App.

Excelente explanation, that's so clear.

The master brewer doing his day job.

Great informative explanation. Thank you

Fantastic explanation sir !!!

Great explanation. Cheers! 👍

Thank you for clear explanation

Great video. I'd like some videos on telecoms/network concepts.

Far from homebrew… great lecture!

thanks a lot for these incredible good videos!

GREAT LECTURE THANX TONI KROOS😊

Wow .. great lecture 🙏👏

Very interesting and informative. I had wondered what the difference was.

Great material.

Docker - Plus it is like lego, get the pieces you need to build the environment even to the versions. So, SQL / MYSQL / Mongodb / Node / Redis Cache, etc. You bring the pieces / config in the docker compose to link these parts together. And most works well.

these IBM videos are so easy to process. Please create a learning platform too @IBM

Thank you Martin.

Thank you for this. I am coming from finance and trying to familiarize myself with technology.

It just struck me, but look at his hand movements when writing--he really is writing inverse. And I don't see any obvious cuts. If he does these videos in a single take while also writing English inversed right-to-left, that's quite something. That or a brilliant editing team.

Docker emulates OS VM emulates HW

Nothing stops you from running containers within VMs, although that's not the most efficient way of using resources but it's the best of the two worlds ;-)

thanks a lot 👍😊

Great video

Any other home brewers just have their mind blown?

It's common to see Docker Running on Hypervisor based VM's. Do what needs to be done for your environment. I don't think IT has ever been as modular as it is nowadays

you really were writing all these words mirrored - so they would look in an normal way for the viewer on the other side of the screen? Wow? that blew my mind....

Can we get recipe videos for Dockerbock and Hypervizen?

VM-- because sometimes you will deploy the finished app to actual hardware after perfecting the prototype in VMs.

Please Tell me about your transparent blackboard technology and camera you use so efficiently! Thank you!

Very confused when i saw the homebrew guy on an IBM thumbnail 😅

Did you flip/mirror the video in the post? Curious on how this writing being done.

We can run diverse OS in containers also, right? Please correct if I am wrong.

Damn, scrolling UKposts and encountering the beer guy on a VM vs Docker video!! 😂

Used to this guy talking about brewing beer :)

VM is also nice if you need a GUI

on time.😀😀

Little Update for you as Docker also Handels WASM, And is mostly only a qemu like abstraction over libcontainer, Docker has Virtual Hardware i can even do cpu instructions written in JS. So i guess you view it out of a single perspective. When i now Run RISC-V which is a CPU Design and so a Full System i Run Full System Emulation Something much lower then the Hypervisor. or a Virtual Machine Monitor. You should in general maybe update your knowledge with resources about RISC-V

I watched several videos on "VM vs containers". And practically each video explains it differently, which shows/causes confusion.

Why is no one talking about how he is writing backwards on the board flawlessly!! 🤯

This dude makes beer in England, what in the world is he doing here!?!?! @TheHomebrewChallenge

What does he use to do the writing that shows on the video?? Hardware and software???

How did you learn to write mirror inversed?

Can you transform what you write into a standard, readable font?

Mum taught me about number 1s and number 2s. I can only assume number 3s is both at once 😮😅😊

More and more dockers are seen as a way to make Research Data reproducible. Still, the fact that one can certainly reproduce a docker, the problem of reproducibility of scientific research data and code will then depend on how well dockers themselves will be reusable in the future. Also, this detracts from the efforts of using more interoperable formats and protocols. I'm really undecided on whether docker containers are really a good or bad solution for reproducibility.

I have docker running on a VM.

Why doesn't Win 11 run Oracle's VM?

Ive installed docker recently and when I run bash script, it's significantly slower than command line.. how strange

This isn’t about brewing beer…..

HOW IS HE WRITING BACKWARDS?

Is this docking?

cool

COOL. THEY ARE ADVERSARIES❗😁😁

With the exception of legacy or patching, I don't get why people are bothering to learn either. As of today you can talk to Microsoft AI Builder to build a Power App. In a few years Docker etc will all be under the hood technology managed by AI and the skills learned will be as useful as COBOL.

Try video explaining things vs ai explaining things

he gave a lot of information but he didn't explain the most important questions.

shouldn't you be brewing?

How is he writing backwards?

This guy is so handsome

VMs are SO MUCH EASIER

It's a choice to buy subscription or to use free to play model. Government helps local business and builds all other services around it. Reason why you need Docker in this case, you aren't able to pay for games, which require monthly or yearly fee or must be bought as stand alone package and politicians are shooting her mouth about it. All of that is a problem after paying all bills dreaming about gardening things to have someday. First time for virtualization was sometime ago preparing for Lab 1 experiment, learning basics and after it never needed it.

The problem is Windows as a totally unreliable platform, Linux with VM is the way we go.

Apple vs orange 😂

Are you actually writting backwards or is there a clever trick happening here

What kind of magic is used for the writing during presentation, or does everyone but me know how to write backwards? LOL

What exact accent is this?

All I know about Docker is it's just hugely resource hungry and slow and on top of that I can't think of a single application I'd use it for which I can't just download and run without it. There has been a huge amount of publicity behind Docker and Kubernetes and I just can't find a use for either of them. What I need is not a "how does it work" video it's a "Who actually uses this and why?" video.

Is this guy seriously write letters in reverse direction like in a mirror ? How ? 😮

The question is wrongly asked, comparing 🍎 s and 🍊 s You can compare VMs to containers. You can compare VMMs to container runtimes. You can compare VMware, KVM, and XEN to Docker.

Heavy sigh... A generic term on the left and a concrete implementation on the right. An IBM video is blowing off AIX WPARs (also containers) completely? I get not mentioning Solaris zones, but really? And, zero mention of docker as a (generally) 1 by 1 container technology that often needs an extra/external orchestration layer to manage more complex stuff? Some good info but not treating the subject as I might hope to see an intro on youtube...

Rule of thumb: VM always works, Docker is a pain in the a

Decent explanation but if you're are going to bother to scribble on a board then at least try to be legible. Pointless if no one can read it.

A very poor comparison, one can barely call it a comparison. Although he explains stuff, there is no clear distinction or differentiation from one another but just a mere list of points that summarises what is VM & what is docker.

Utterly false, in many cases Docker use Hypervisor and VM (it's platform dependent) with it's own H/W emulation and guest OS, and also H/W (CPU) emulation when needed through QEmu. So bad!
