I see Docker mentioned every other thread and was wondering how useful it is for non development things, and if so what they are.

    its a container system that saves you from dealing with interactions between server software, config files scattered everywhere and is even more secure and more portable.

    it helps you use 1 server for many services without issues, being able to redeploy a given service without issues whenever needed.

    its a bit counter intuitive to learn, but makes it plain easier and almost maintenance free to run a server if you set up things right.
