Docker-Compose

Docker Compose is a lightweight and efficient tool that allows you to define, configure, and run multi-container applications using a single docker-compose.yml file. It simplifies container orchestration by letting developers start, stop, and manage multiple services with just one command, making it an essential component for modern containerized development and deployment workflows.

Features of Docker Compose:

• Define multi-container applications using a simple YAML configuration file.
• Start, stop, and manage all services with a single command.
• Built-in support for environment variables and service dependency management.
• Easy integration with Docker networks, volumes, and build contexts.
• Supports scaling services horizontally using docker compose up --scale.
• Ideal for development, testing, staging, and small production environments.
• Ensures consistent, reproducible environments across different systems.
• Works seamlessly with Docker Engine and CLI plugins.

Docker-Compose Usage Instructions:

 $ sudo su
 $ sudo apt update
