Question

How far do Docker containers scale? Are there any requirements for the same? I wanted to scale up my containers but I am worried if something goes wrong, I might end up losing everything.

Large web deployments like Google and Twitter and platform providers such as Heroku and dotCloud, all run on container technology. Containers can be scaled to hundreds of thousands or even millions of them running in parallel. Talking about requirements, containers require the memory and the OS at all the times and a way to use this memory efficiently when scaled.
