Docker is a set of platform as a service products that uses OS-level virtualization to deliver software in packages called containers isolated from one another.

Kubernetes is an open source orchestration system for automating the management, placement, scaling and routing of containers first developed by Google and contributed to Open Source.

Together with Cloud Computing, they enable Enterprises to scale and perform with agility and fault tolerance in an unprecedented level!
