Containerization

Containerization is like putting different items in different boxes, so they don't mix together. In computing, containerization means splitting a single program into different pieces and putting each piece into its own 'box'. This makes it easier or faster to move the program from one computer to another, or to make different program pieces work together better. Containers can also help make sure that programs use the right amount of memory, storage and other resources, so that computers keep running quickly and efficiently.
