Container deployment is the action of putting containers to use. The deployment of containers uses management software that simplifies the launch and updates of applications. Container deployment provides fast access to environments and speeds up development because secure containers can be quickly downloaded and put to use. Container deployment also minimizes errors because it reduces the number of moving parts in development.
Applications are deployed with a combination of manual procedures and automated scripts. Security can be a concern when containers run at a root level, which increases vulnerability.
Container deployment tools such as Docker and OpenShift / Kubernetes multi-container deployment help manage the containers in real-world production environments. They replace what used to be a total reliance on IT engineers.
