Docker is an open-source technology that allows users to deploy applications to software containers. A Docker container is an instance of a Docker image, where the Docker image is the application, including the file system and runtime parameters. You can create a Docker image from an installed and configured Integration Server instance and then run the Docker image inside a Docker container. To facilitate running Integration Server in a Docker container, Integration Server provides a script to use to build a Docker image and then load or push the resulting Docker image to a Docker registry hosted on-premise or in webMethods Integration Cloud.

Support for Integration Server with Docker 1.12.11 and later is available on Linux and UNIX systems for which Docker provides native support.
