    If you are in need of backup, there is something wrong with Docker’s usage strategy. Unlike a VM, a container is created thinking of its death as something everyday. So what you need is to have a dockerfile that allows you to recreate the image if the image no longer exists. Volatile data, such as upload data, database data etc, should be in volumes.

  • You really are right. I had not stopped to ponder this question.
