Docker (software)
Docker, also known as Docker Engine, is a platform for building, shipping, and running applications in containers using Linux kernel features, first released in 2013.
Docker Compose
Docker Compose is a tool for defining and running multi-container Docker applications: services, networks, and volumes are described in one YAML file and started with a single command.
Docker Hub

Docker Swarm
Docker Swarm, also called Swarm mode, is the built-in container orchestration feature of Docker Engine, letting Docker hosts run as one cluster; it was integrated in Engine 1.12 in June 2016.
Docking and berthing of spacecraft
Docking and berthing, also called space docking, are the two ways spacecraft connect in orbit: docking under a spacecraft's own power, berthing by robotic arm, first achieved in 1966.
Docking basin
Docking basin: an open, usually artificial water area enclosed by dock gates or locks where vessels moor or dock alongside quays; also called wet dock or harbor (US), distinct from a dry dock.
Docking station
A docking station is a device that lets a portable computer connect displays, peripherals, Ethernet, and charging power through a single cable or attachment point.

Document classification
Document classification, also known as document categorization or text categorization, is the task of automatically assigning documents such as web pages and newswire stories to predefined classes by subject, generally using machine learning algorithms.
Document clustering
Document clustering is an unsupervised machine learning method that groups text documents by similarity, typically using TF-IDF vectors and k-means, to support search, topic extraction, and web mining.
Document layout analysis
Document layout analysis is a document image processing step that detects and classifies page regions such as text blocks, tables, and figures to support OCR.
Document management system
A document management system (DMS), also called an electronic document management system, is software used to receive, track, manage, and store documents, typically keeping version history of changes made by different users.
Document Object Model
