An Application Container Platform is a system used for creating, upgrading, and deploying multiple application containers on a single Operating System (OS) kernel. The Application Container itself is a standard unit of software, including code and all its dependencies, libraries, and settings in a convenient package. Containers can be quickly switched from one computing environment to another and they will continue to work reliably. Application Containers usually work on virtual machines, cloud instances, and bare-metal cloud systems across different OS. Currently, the Container Platform Market Share leader by a long shot is Kubernetes.
