1. Q: What is Docker?
A: You can create a Docker container from an image using the `docker run`
command. For example:
```
```
A: You can share data between a Docker host and a container using Docker
volumes or bind mounts. Volumes provide a managed storage solution, while
bind mounts map a host directory into the container.
A: You can remove a Docker container using the `docker rm` command. For
example:
```
docker rm mycontainer
```

A: Docker volumes are managed by Docker and provide data persistence
even if the container is removed. Bind mounts map a host directory into the
container and have less isolation but o er exibility.
A: You can build a Docker image from a Docker le using the `docker build`
command. For example:
```
```
A: You can push a Docker image to a registry using the `docker push`
command. For example:
```
```
A: You can run multiple containers in Docker using Docker Compose, which
allows you to de ne and manage multi-container applications. You can use a
YAML le to specify the services and their con gurations.
A: You can de ne environment variables in Docker using the `-e` ag with the
`docker run` command. For example:
```
```
A: To update a Docker image, you need to rebuild the image and push the
new version to the registry. Then, you can update the running containers by
pulling the new image and recreating the containers.

15. Q: How do you ensure high availability in Docker Swarm?
A: To
ensure high availability in Docker Swarm, you can con gure a manager node
as a leader, and the other manager nodes as followers. If the leader goes
down, one of the followers is elected as the new leader, ensuring continuous
operation of the swarm.
A: You can monitor Docker containers using tools like Docker Stats,
cAdvisor, Prometheus, or third-party monitoring solutions. These tools
provide insights into resource usage, performance metrics, and container
health.
A: You can limit the resources available to a Docker container using resource
constraints speci ed with the `--cpus` and `--memory` ags when running the
container.
A: You can enable container restart policies using the `--restart` ag when
running a container. The restart policies include options like "no", "on-
failure", or "always", specifying when and under what conditions a container
should be automatically restarted.
A: Docker supports various logging drivers, such as json- le, syslog, and
uentd, to capture container logs. You can con gure the logging driver for a
container using the `--log-driver` ag or by specifying it in the Docker
Compose le.
A: To secure Docker containers, you can follow best practices such as using
only trusted images, minimizing the attack surface, implementing resource
constraints, regularly updating images, scanning for vulnerabilities, and
restricting container privileges.
A: You can backup Docker volumes by using tools like `docker run` with the
appropriate volume mounts to copy the data to an external location. To
restore, you can create new volumes and copy the backup data back into
them.
A: You can pass runtime arguments to a Docker container using the `docker
run` command with the `--env` or `-e` ag. For example:
```
```
you can use Docker Compose. De ne the services and their con gurations
in a Compose le, and then use the `docker-compose up` command to start
the application.

30. Q: How do you restrict access to Docker API endpoints?
A: You can restrict access to Docker API endpoints by con guring TLS
authentication and authorization. Generate TLS certi cates, con gure
Docker daemon with TLS options, and use client certi cates to authenticate
and authorize access to the API.
These questions cover a range of Docker-related topics and can help you
prepare for interviews. Remember to customize your answers and provide
real-world examples based on your experience and understanding of Docker.
