About Docker

Docker is an open platform for developers and sysadmins to build, ship, and run distributed applications. Consisting of Docker Engine, a portable, lightweight runtime and packaging tool, and Docker Hub, a cloud service for sharing applications and automating workflows, Docker enables apps to be quickly assembled from components and eliminates the friction between development, QA, and production environments.

About Epitech Innovation Hub

Epitech Innovation Hub has been put in place, within each Epitech School, to challenge project initiators and promote students passion and creativity through projects they believe in. At the crossroads of technology, trades, multidisciplinary and intercultural, the Epitech Innovation Hub is a unique place where ideas crystalize and where technological innovations on tomorrow’s uses are generated. It’s here where students learn to plan, to co-create and to find partners. It’s not about developing high tech solutions without considering usage, but imaging ways to disrupt technologies based on the needs of the market.
It's a place open to everyone who wants to share expertise and foster innovation. Firms, startups, associations, individuals and students from other schools are welcome to exchange, initiate and build projects which revolutionize the uses with Epitech students. It highlights the fact that "if you want to go fast you can go alone, but if you want to go far you should go together".
The Hub is a toolbox of resources (technical or non-technical expertises, spaces, tools) for students and partners who connects with Epitech schools to build things.
