Container Platform — Docker

Evaluates Docker's Docker Engine, Containers & Runtime across 9 scenario-based test cases, each graded against an expected-behavior rubric by an LLM judge, from Corsac's Container Platform eval coverage.

About Docker

Docker is the container platform — Docker Engine, Docker Desktop, Docker Hub registry, Docker Build Cloud for managed cloud builders, Docker Scout for image vulnerability scanning and supply-chain policy, Docker Compose for multi-container dev, and Docker Model Runner for local LLM inference. Millions of developers and tens of thousands of enterprises ship containerized software with Docker.

01

Container reports 'Up' but the app inside crashed and is no longer serving HTTP. Load balancer keeps sending traffic.

Add HEALTHCHECK --interval=30s --timeout=5s --start-period=10s --retries=3 CMD curl -fsS http://localhost:8080/health || exit 1 in the Dockerfile (or healthcheck in compose). 'docker ps' status becomes 'healthy' / 'unhealthy'. Load balancer and depends_on consumers gate on health.

DB container uses '-v /home/user/db:/var/lib/postgres' — host path. After host upgrade, the host path changes and DB data appears empty.

Use named volume: '-v pgdata:/var/lib/postgres' with 'docker volume create pgdata'. Engine manages storage path. Stable across host upgrades. Bind mounts are appropriate for source-code dev where host editability matters.

Single-host dev uses default bridge; multi-host swarm needs services to talk across hosts.

Default bridge connects containers on a single host only. For multi-host, use an overlay network in Swarm mode (or external orchestrator). Overlay is encrypted (--opt encrypted) and uses VXLAN. Don't pick host network for multi-tenant — it bypasses isolation.
