The author even goes further and explains how to build a small container engine (Mocker) to prove that by understanding a few simple concepts in Linux, it is possible to easily understand the complexities of tools like Docker and use them at scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"3\"><span dir=\"auto\" style=\"vertical-align: inherit\">Book Features<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><span
