Getting Started with Docker and PostgreSQL: How to Install and Create a PostgreSQL Container

In this tutorial, we’ll walk through the process of installing Docker and creating a PostgreSQL container. Docker is a platform for building, shipping, and running distributed applications, while PostgreSQL is a powerful open-source relational database management system. We’ll start by installing Docker and verifying that it’s working correctly. Then, we’ll create a PostgreSQL container using the “docker run” command, and set a password for the container. Finally, we’ll start the container and connect to the PostgreSQL server using a PostgreSQL client. This tutorial is a great starting point for anyone interested in learning how to use Docker and PostgreSQL to build and manage distributed applications. No prior knowledge of Docker or PostgreSQL is required. So, let’s get started!
