And today in section six we're going to be talking about Docker networking. A quick level set just to cover the overall picture of Docker, right? You have the a physical server, an operating system, Linux Kernel, Docker Engine runs on top of the Linux Kernel. It utilizes namespaces to isolate the different containers as well as C groups who constrain access to resources like network, CPU, et cetera, RAM. So this is the overview of Docker and we're going to talk in this section about Docker network.
