Container Services

If you wish to run multiple instances of an application on a single host machine, containers are an excellent choice.
The container orchestrator can start, stop, and scale out application instances as needed.

Containers are often used to create solutions using a microservice architecture. This architecture is where you
break solutions into smaller, independent pieces. For example, you may split a website into a container hosting
your front end, another hosting your back end, and a third for storage. This split allows you to separate portions of
your app intoElogical sections that can be maintained, scaled, or updated independently.
