=Docker and State Management=
==Environment Variables==
Containerized applications must avoid maintaining configuration in filesystem files - if they do, it limits the reusability of the container. A common pattern used to handle application configuration is to move configuration state into environment variables that can be passed to the application from the container. Docker supports environment variables natively, they are stored in the metadata that makes up a container configuration, and restarting the container will ensure the same configuration is passed to the application each time.
==Application State==
The best use case for Docker is an application that can store state in a centralized location that could be accessed regardless of which host the container runs on.
