How to Dockerize Strapi v4

Strapi, an open-source Headless CMS, offers various deployment options, including traditional hosting and a new Strapi Cloud beta program for easier hosting without self-deployment. Developers can also use Docker and the community tool Dockerize, created by Simen Daehlin, to simplify Strapi deployments across cloud providers. Dockerize generates necessary configuration files, such as Dockerfile and docker-compose, tailored to user needs, and supports multiple databases like MariaDB, MySQL, and PostgreSQL. This tool enhances security and allows customization, addressing the need for automation in deploying Strapi applications. Strapi Cloud aims to relieve developers from managing infrastructure, allowing them to focus on building web experiences while maintaining open-source values and offering self-hosting as an option. Strapi continues to support its users through community engagement and resources, emphasizing flexibility and innovation in content management.
