#35913 — The Big Difference Between Containers And Virtual Machines

If you have been reading about virtualization and how large enterprises manage their applications across servers located in different cities and even countries, you must have come across terms like virtual machines and containers.

In simple words, a container is an encapsulated environment created to run applications on your server without the need of booting a separate operating system regardless of the platform. This makes software portability so much more convenient than how it used to be in the past.
