Docker vs Red Hat Codeready Workspaces: What are the differences?
Docker: Enterprise Container Platform for High-Velocity Innovation. The Docker Platform is the industry-leading container platform for continuous, high-velocity innovation, enabling organizations to seamlessly build and share any application — from legacy to what comes next — and securely run them anywhere; Red Hat Codeready Workspaces: An in-browser IDE for rapid cloud application development (Previously known as Codenvy). Built on the open Eclipse Che project, Red Hat CodeReady Workspaces provides developer workspaces, which include all the tools and the dependencies that are needed to code, build, test, run, and debug applications.
Docker and Red Hat Codeready Workspaces are primarily classified as "Virtual Machine Platforms & Containers" and "Cloud IDE" tools respectively.
Some of the features offered by Docker are:
- Integrated developer tools
- open, portable images
- shareable, reusable apps
On the other hand, Red Hat Codeready Workspaces provides the following key features:
- Portable Developer Workspaces
- Multi-Tenant
- Workspace as Code
"Rapid integration and build up", "Isolation" and "Open source" are the key factors why developers consider Docker; whereas "Anywhere coding", "Open source and free for use" and "Java support" are the primary reasons why Red Hat Codeready Workspaces is favored.
Docker is an open source tool with 60.1K GitHub stars and 17.4K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Docker's open source repository on GitHub.
According to the StackShare community, Docker has a broader approval, being mentioned in 7731 company stacks & 87331 developers stacks; compared to Red Hat Codeready Workspaces, which is listed in 17 company stacks and 323 developer stacks.
