Docker, Docker Compose and Docker Machine must be installed on the system before using DDKits. (To save your self time, try to use Docker Toolbox)
Virtual Box
VirtualBox is a general-purpose full virtualizer for x86 hardware, targeted at server, desktop and embedded use.
For a thorough introduction to virtualization and VirtualBox, please refer to the
online version of the VirtualBox User Manual's first chapter.
- VirtualBox 6.1.16 (this version is the best version to use with docker-machine as for April/2022 with no issues in vboxnet creation)
Docker
Is the world’s leading software container platform. Developers use Docker to eliminate “works on my machine” problems when collaborating on code with co-workers. Operators use Docker to run and manage apps side-by-side in isolated containers to get better compute density. Enterprises use Docker to build agile software delivery pipelines to ship new features faster, more securely and with confidence for both Linux, Windows Server, and Linux-on-mainframe apps.
Docker Composer
Is a tool for defining and running complex applications with Docker. With compose, you define a multi-container application in a single file, then spin your application up in a single command which does everything that needs to be done to get it running.
Docker Machine
Is a Docker tool which makes it really easy to create Docker hosts on your computer, on cloud providers and inside your own data center. It creates servers, installs Docker on them, then configures the Docker client to talk to them.
Docker Toolbox
Is a legacy installer for Mac and Windows users. It uses Oracle VirtualBox for virtualization. For Macs running OS X El Capitan 10.11 and newer macOS releases, Docker for Mac is the better solution. For Windows 10 systems that support Microsoft Hyper-V (Professional, Enterprise and Education), Docker for Windows is the better solution.
