 Docker is a service for creating and managing linux containers.
 Containers are the application layer of an OS and whatever software you're trying to run.
-For the most part, software can be containerized to run in a consistent environment.
-This applies so long as the container linux environment is compatible with your host system's linux kernel.
+The container itself contains the code to be run along with the environment.
+Anything which needs state is mounted as a volume to the container.
