Question

Is it smart to run MongoDB on Docker? Why?

Answer 1

I think yes it is definitely a smart choice to use Docker for MongoDB that you do on your local machine (desktop/laptop). By using Docker in production is subjective but a lot of startups and enterprises use it. In my opinion, you should go with Docker if you are confident with it else stick with traditional ways such as apt/rpm. If you want to learn Docker then I would suggest you must take up the following Docker Training Course. I am also mentioning a video tutorial on Docker which you must take up to understand it in a much better way.
