Kubernetes is used for orchestrating containers. Pods are used for optimizing hardware resources. As far as I know, Docker have zero support for neither. Edit:

Huh? Docker 100% supports containers. I mean, it’s sort of the whole point. There’s even an example in the article.

  Container orchestration. Look it up. Edit: Lol @ comments. ...could mean... I don't think anybody talks about orchestrating containers without meaning it includes scheduling and so on. What Kubernetes, Nomad, Service Fabric and so on does. The tools we use. We can include Docker Swarm for courtesy if you want...

    Orchestration could mean a variety of different things. Distributed multi-machine orchestration? No. Orchestration of containers on one machine? Sure, though one could argue that Compose or Swarm is needed for that.

      No, not really if you work in the field of containers.

Oh, the container software Docker isn't used to create containers? TIL

  Docker is used to run containers. Not orchestrating containers. Wow, seems to be language barrier here. :) Edit: Nothing in the article mentions Docker Swarm you sillies..

    Docker still ships with swarm compiled in, so yes, actually, docker does orchestrate containers.

    Docker is a brand name for a bunch of totally unrelated concerns. It's some metadata attached to some tar archives. It's a repository that hosts said tar archives and metadata. It's a client for pushing and pulling said archives. It's a container runtime. It's a cgroups manager. It's a networking layer. It's a container orchestrator. It's a Mac app that requires you to pay them to run a Linux VM. They do a shit ton of stuff and named their product and their company the same thing, and were here pretty early on. My point is that it's a largely useless term. If you want to understand things at a deeper level, you have to cut through the cruft. You can put linux distributions into tar files and run them without Docker (see systemd-nspawn). You can use cgroups to run ordinary Linux binaries. You can make a group of processes run on a fake private network. You can build OCI-compliant container images without ever running a single thing in a container. Docker conflates all of this and confuses people. Don't be confused, realize that "Docker" does a lot.

Docker doesn't do pods, pods are just a collection of containers. Docker's whole thing is containers plus some enterprise tooling on top of it. Pods are the smallest deployable units in Kubernetes. No one said Docker supports pods, but Docker definitely, 100%, supports containers, it's literally the thing that it's known for.

Of course you can create pods with docker, run it along with kubelet and drop manifests into /etc/kubernetes/manifests. This is what static pods are
