About Docker
Docker Cloud is an application development solution and hosted registry service that allows users to build and test Dockerized application images. The platform provides tools that help users set up and manage a host infrastructure, alongside application lifecycle features that enable users to automate the deployment (and redeployment) of services created from images.
The platform uses the hosted Docker Cloud Registry, which allows users to publish Dockerized images on the internet either privately or publicly. Docker Cloud allows users to store pre-built images, as well as link to source codes so it can build the code into Docker images, and optionally test the resulting images before pushing them to a repository.
Docker Cloud allows users to link to their infrastructure or cloud services provider in order to provision new nodes automatically. Once the nodes are set up, users can deploy images directly from Docker Cloud repositories. Images are just a single layer in containerized applications.
Once an image is created, users can deploy services (which are composed of one or more containers created from an image), or use Docker Cloud’s stackfiles to combine it with other services and microservices, to form a full application. Users are able to create teams to manage access control to the organization's repos, applications, and infrastructure.

We have solved the stability issues with using distributed Docker containers. Our downtime on our website significantly dropped down. I can tell that my overall experience with Docker is very good.
Pros
It has great community online. When I need help with some configuration or error, I can easily find the solution. Also the Docker containers are very stable and fast. It can easily be deployed using a regular CI/CD tool.
Cons
Nowadays, using standalone docker containers are not a common way. You need to use Docker with Kubernetes. I'd be glad if some developments will be performed for the aim of using Docker standalone containers.

Helps to manage your application and host on docker hub.
Helps to distribute and deploy your application on different system.
Pros
The best thing about docker is docker cloud. You can host your application in docker cloud and share with your teammate or make it public which make it extremely helpful to install your application in literally any system without worrying about the system dependencies. Lots of contributors are there in docker cloud. Also helps you in improving your software infrastructure by isolating your application micro services.
Cons
Not more documentation about different ways to deploy application.
Not good documentation about different commands you can run on docker-compose and their dependencies.
Some time you feel stuck while solving particular problem and you find no help in the internet.
