Docker is a tool designed to make it easier to create, deploy, and run applications by using containers.

This integration will monitor your containers using metrics automatically collected by the Outlyer agent and the Docker plugin.

Once enabled you will get a default Docker dashboard to help you get started monitoring your containers.
