Install Docker Engine On The Virtual Machine

In this article, we will install docker-engine on the virtual machine.

Create A Virtual Machine

First, create a virtual machine of Ubuntu image.

Once the virtual machine is created, install docker. Once the docker is installed, write the following commands.

sudo docker pull nginx
sudo docker run -d -p 80:80 --name nginx-container nginx

Enable port 80 in the virtual machine.

Paste the IP address and you can see the nginx server installed in the container.
