I am trying to learn the differences between Docker and PCF. I have done some research and found some differences.

Docker:

-- Basic Container (Infrastructure as a Code).

-- Customizable Dockerfiles based on our needs.

-- We need to define the Dockerfiles based on our needs.

-- Much more flexible, portable and can work with our needs.

-- Needs configurations and development and a little harder to manage.

--Vendors (like Kubernetes) provides logging page and dashboard to manage.

--With Kubernetes, you need to be specific. Don’t expect deployments to be implied.

PCF: -- Managed platform over the containers (Platform as a Service)

--Provides a logging page and dashboard to manage

-- With PCF, provide the information you know, and the platform will imply the rest

-- Standard baseline buildpacks are provided by the vendors.

-- Can identify which buildpack to use automatically, based on the contents of the provided build artifact.

-- A little less flexible, requires some dependencies (makes it a little harder for portability)

-- A managed service and requires less efforts to manage and work with it.

Please tell me more about the differences and similarities between Docker and PCF.

-TIA.
