WHAT IS DOCKER UCP?

=>Universal Control Plane

· devops

Define

UCP is a containerized application that runs on Docker Enterprise Edition,

  • extending its functionality to simplify:
  • the deployment,
  • configuration, and
  • monitoring of your applications at scale.

Once Universal Control Plane (UCP) instance is deployed, developers and IT operations no longer interact with Docker Engine directly, but interact with UCP instead.

Since UCP exposes the standard Docker API, this is all done transparently, so that you can use the tools you already know and love, like the Docker CLI client and Docker Compose.
