Overview

Black Duck Architecture

Black Duck is deployed as a set of Docker containers. "Dockerizing" Black Duck so that different components are containerized allows third-party orchestration tools such as Swarm to manage all individual containers.

The Docker architecture brings these significant improvements to Black Duck:

• Improved performance

• Easier installation and updates

• Scalability

• Product component orchestration and stability

See Docker containers, for more information on the Docker containers that comprise the Black Duck application.
