I'd like to see the new update on containers and what you can achieve with the new version of Docker by using containers. I would also like to know the range of applications for which it can be used. I want to see if new architectures have been incorporated in Docker or if we have to wait for another release.
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 product does not have an extensive documentation. The tool does not have good scenarios. We have to go through the GitHub repository and investigate similar scenarios. Also, if you are copying multiple things, then you can jeopardize the copy number. The copying aspect also lacks a UI part. We also need to limit the memory.
I'm not a developer but a salesperson, so I cannot contribute much in terms of what needs improvement in the solution from a technical perspective. From a marketing perspective, we, as distributors, wish that Docker would figure out a way to reach more customers. Marketing of Docker is one area that needs to improve. So, since Docker was commercialized a year and a half ago, it should plan to work on its marketing part. Also, there is room for improvement in terms of the security provided by the solution. So, it should be an ongoing process that never ends.
We have found that it is not easy to install it into a Windows system. I get very frustrated with Windows. When I install a Docker instance on a Windows machine, it is not easy to handle. In contrast, it's very easy to use on the Mac OS. I'd like the solution to be more flexible.
There may not be much room for improvement with Docker as it has greatly evolved. However, one area that could be improved upon is the documentation on their website which was once easy to follow but has become quite terrible with numerous versions being released. As an example, the installation process for Docker now requires more than just a one-line command, causing inconvenience. Additionally, based on my experience as a college instructor, teaching students to install Docker was a difficult task due to the lack of straightforward and easy-to-follow documentation. Docker should focus on improving their documentation to make it more user-friendly for all. In an upcoming release of the solution, the UI should be made even more user-friendly and comprehensive, as it currently requires a multi-step process to set up a registry or host a container. A one-click solution that streamlines the entire process and makes storing, leaving, and cleaning up images significantly easier. This feature would greatly benefit those who have previously struggled with additional cleaning when hosting their own container, and it would make the end-to-end Docker experience more accessible and efficient.
I would like to see a more UI-based tool so that students can easily understand it rather than memorizing all of the Docker commands. Some people try using Docker desktop and containers to make it graphical. Docker Swarm could have more advanced features, like Kubernetes, which has an auto scaling feature and cell-filling capabilities.
We have encountered a few performance issues with docker along the way, but this does not happen often. Nevertheless, I would like Docker's performance to be better. Docker has less support if you use a container. However, with Linux, I need to use a container. I would love to have it available on Linux.
We would like to see improvement in adding the node into the Docker Swarm cluster, as at present it is a little tricky and requires a lot of manual steps.

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 takes away repetitive, mundane configuration tasks and is used throughout the development lifecycle for fast, easy and portable application development – desktop and cloud. Docker’s comprehensive end to end platform includes UIs, CLIs, APIs and security that are engineered to work together across the entire application delivery lifecycle.
We are facing multiple issues with the solution's stability.

Stability is an area with a shortcoming. Hence, stability needs to be improved.

The command line interface could be more intuitive. I constantly struggle with it.
Deployment could be quicker and customer service and support can be improved.
One item that could be improved is the overall stability of Docker.

Docker could improve by having security vulnerability reports.
