Similar to Jradd, for me, I'm working on creating a training environment (based on an existing Python app) using docker. Using docker for containerization lets me launch instances with a preset disk/mem quota and also handles forwarding ports from the host to the container automatically.

For a single application, docker doesn't add much except for portability. For a single application with many components, docker adds process isolation (and quotas, and ...).
