Docker
Docker, Inc. is a software company that provides an open platform for building, shipping, and running distributed applications through the use of container technology. Founded in 2008 and headquartered in San Francisco, California, Docker facilitates collaboration among developers and system administrators by allowing applications to be packaged as containers that can run seamlessly across various environments, including local machines, data centers, and public clouds. The platform includes tools for code building, scaling, deployment, and load balancing, as well as a cloud service for sharing applications and automating workflows. By offering an integrated and secure workflow, Docker enhances the efficiency of application development and accelerates the delivery process from code to deployment, serving millions of developers worldwide.
Infinit International was created in 2012 by two Frenchmen, Julien Quintard and Baptiste Fradin, with the vision of combining technology and design. Infinit graduated from the second season of Le Camping’s accelerator program in Paris. Soon after, its technology was recognised as highly innovative by various grant programs and innovation competitions such as the Qualcomm QPrize, System@tic and the French National Innovation Contest from which Infinit emerged as laureate in 2013. In 2014, Infinit was accepted to the Techstars accelerator program in New York City. Shortly thereafter, Infinit received $1.8M in funding from Alven Capital and 360 Capital Partners.

Unikernel Systems was formed to foster the open source unikernel movement and explore commercial avenues for their application. By supporting and building on the open source technology foundations, Unikernel Systems aimed to make unikernels more broadly applicable and the tooling around them more accessible to the entire systems community. Unikernel Systems has now joined Docker. Docker is uniquely suited to work with Unikernel Systems to drive one of the most significant recent developments in operating systems technology. Working together will allows companies to accelerate the development and broad adoption of this technology which will become a critical part of future microservices and IoT.
