We performed a comparison between Codespaces and Docker based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Development Platforms solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Codespaces' most valuable feature is the repository, which helps the developers to work together. Its data commands are also useful."
"The most valuable features of the solution are Copilot and Advanced Security."
"The product allows us to implement feature-related changes or improvements on time. Whenever I write a section of the code or create a new code, it automatically integrates with the former code."
"The initial setup was easy, and you are only required to run commands."
"The solution's customer service is good."
"The deployment is quite fast, which is beneficial."
"I think the best feature is to replicate anything in our local machine using a simple command."
"The most valuable feature of Docker is that it revolutionized virtualization by providing a new approach with containers that completely nullified the time it used to take to deploy applications on virtual servers, resulting in deployment times that can be as quick as milliseconds, unless it is a heavy application, such as Java. Additionally, resource utilization has greatly improved with Docker, allowing for more resources to be allocated to other tasks. These are a few key features that make Docker a preferred choice."
"Docker is perfect for what I do...The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable feature of Docker is its integration with other solutions, such as KVM and AlmaLinux."
"I am impressed with the product's independence. We can also deploy it anywhere."
"The product indicates incorrect statistics."
"We get merge conflict errors and need to resolve them."
"The technical support could respond faster."
"The volumes for persistent storage could be more user friendly right out of the box."
"The solution’s documentation could improve a bit."
"We are facing multiple issues with the solution's stability."
"Deployment could be quicker."
"I have encountered network issues while connecting with microservices. I want to optimize the application layers over the bucket. It should also have better documentation."
"The security layer is very vulnerable, although they are working to improve the system hardening and email hardening."
"If you install Docker on a host, it creates its own firewalls. It can become an issue. Usually, when you want to install Docker, you need to restart the firewall or restart the active tables on the machine, but this is not the case with Kubernetes. It uses the default set up by the next administrator, but with Docker, you have to restart the firewall and restart Docker before the firewall on the system will be okay. If you do not the rules will not be created."
"Docker could improve by providing the ability to use the GPU for parallel processing. If there was the capability of using the GPU it would improve the machine learning that I want to use."
