The biggest immediate benefit I think docker has:
The ability to rapidly enable local testing for dev teams (and new hires).
Imagine you have a team implementing a mysql infrastructure but it won't be done for 2 months. The developers need to start coding using this mysql infrastructure ASAP.
Using Docker, you can just pull a mysql image and have your dev teams develop locally using this image as their app's backend.
You could also deploy that mysql image onto a dev server - now you have instantly enabled the dev teams to start working against an infrastructure that won't be ready for another 2 months.
