The description in the scenario clearly points to Docker. Docker is an open-source platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of applications inside containers. It allows:

Isolation of applications from the underlying system

Communication through well-defined APIs and networking interfaces

Rapid packaging and shipping of applications in a containerized format

Docker uses OS-level virtualization and is ideal for Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) environments.

Incorrect Options:

A. Virtual machines virtualize entire operating systems and are heavier in resource use.

B. Serverless computing abstracts the infrastructure entirely but is not about containerization.

D. Zero Trust is a security architecture, not a development or packaging platform.
