A key tool in the Docker arsenal for development and deployment is Docker Hub—which was launched in June 2014 by Docker Inc., the lead commercial sponsor behind Docker—and has grown significantly over the course of the last year.
The Docker Hub is a central repository for “Dockerized” applications that can be deployed on a Docker host and, at launch, already had 14,000 applications. Docker Hub is also a platform that can enable developer workflow as part of a DevOp continuous integration and deployment approach. Docker Hub has grown in the last year, and Docker Inc. now claims that there are more 300,000 users of Docker Hub.
