Docker is a powerful containerization platform that allows you to deploy, manage and run applications in isolated containers. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the installation process of Docker on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before installing Docker, you need to ensure that your Ubuntu Server is up-to-date and has the latest version of packages installed. You can achieve this by running the following command:
sudo apt-get update
To install Docker on Ubuntu Server, execute the following command:
sudo apt-get install docker.io
This will install Docker along with all the necessary dependencies.
Once the installation is complete, verify that Docker is running by executing the following command:
sudo systemctl status docker
You should see a message indicating that Docker is active and running.
To test the Docker installation, run the following command:
sudo docker run hello-world
This command will download a test image and run it in a container. If everything is working correctly, you should see a message indicating that Docker is able to run containers.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Docker on Ubuntu Server Latest. With Docker, you can deploy and manage applications in an isolated environment, making it an essential tool for developers and system administrators.
