Docker editions
Docker is available in two editions:
-
Docker Enterprise Edition (Docker EE) is designed for enterprise development and IT teams who build, ship, and run business critical applications in production at scale. Docker EE is integrated, certified, and supported to provide enterprises with the most secure container platform in the industry to modernize all applications. For more information about Docker EE, including purchasing options, see Docker Enterprise Edition{: target="blank" class="" }.
-
Docker Community Edition (Docker CE) is ideal for developers and small teams looking to get started with Docker and experimenting with container-based apps. Docker CE is available on many platforms, from desktop to cloud to server. Docker CE is available for macOS and Windows and provides a native experience to help you focus on learning Docker. You can build and share containers and automate the development pipeline all from a single environment.
Docker CE has both stable and edge channels.
- Stable builds are released once per quarter and are supported for 4 months.
- Edge builds are released once per month, and are supported for that month only. If you subscribe to the Edge channel on Linux distributions, you should also subscribe to the Stable channel.
For more information about Docker CE, see Docker Community Edition{: target="blank" class="" }.
-
Docker Cloud is a platform run by Docker which allows you to deploy your application using multiple cloud providers such as Digital Ocean, Packet, SoftLink, or to bring your own device. For more information about using Docker Cloud, see Docker Cloud.
Platform support matrix
Docker CE and Docker EE run on Linux, Cloud, Windows, and macOS platforms. Use the following matrix to choose the best installation path for you. The links under Platform take you straight to the installation instructions for that platform.
{% include docker_platform_matrix.md %}
See also Docker Cloud for setup instructions for Digital Ocean, Packet, SoftLink, or Bring Your Own Cloud.
Time-based release schedule
Starting with Docker 17.03, Docker uses a time-based release schedule, outlined below.
