You mentioned Docker what is Docker like if you want to generalize it, and how would you go about defining Docker? Is Docker container itself or container runtime ? Why would you use Docker? Over a virtual machine, and even an example? Let's say I have like okay, I have a Docker image in Docker Hub.

Does Jenkins have a concept of master slave if yes, do you know what it is? Can you walk me through how would you? Let's say you write a code right and you want to push it to whatever repo you're using. You mentioned GitHub GitLab only push updated code ? Let's say you do this, but there is a conflict in the repo. How will you resolve it ? Now, you mentioned your work with CloudFormation and TerraForm. Why do you prefer one over the other?

Any commands you can run to check where might be the issue lying with this ? you ping it you get a response right? What does that mean? when you use ping does it only check network connectivity or does it check connectivity on a specific port? What if you want to check connectivity on a certain website on a specific port, for example. You do Ping google.com You get a response right? It means that you can communicate with Google as in your laptop from where you ran that command is communicating with google.com Just fine. However, if you want to communicate with Google, let's say on port 8080. How would you check connectivity for that? Let's say you create a website. Just for example, right? It's your own website, where you know you put in details about your life and stuff. And it's hosted on, let's say www yourname.com. Write your name means that can.com That's fine. So when you pick that you get a response. We have been in this from your own laptop or computer whatever you use, right? It means okay connectivity is there however you want to communicate to your website on a specific port. For example, let the port number be 8080 How would you check connectivity with your website on port 8080 Like what one would use? the command you will use to check both connectivity. To check port is open or not.
