Vagrant

Vagrant is free and open-source software for creating and configuring virtual development environments. It can be seen as a wrapper around virtualization software such as VirtualBox, KVM, VMware and around configuration management software such as Chef, Salt or Puppet.

Check out this infographic comparing Vagrant and Docker:

  • 메인환경에 대한 격리가 필요하고 빠르게 여러 VE 이미지 생성이 필요한 경우 Docker를 추천.
  • 테스트 및 디버깅, 다양한 시나리오를 원할 경우 Docker를 추천.
  • 가상환경 전체를 분리해야할 경우 Vagrant를 추천.

Simple example 

$ vagrant init
## edit Vagrantfile
$ vagrant up

Disable VT-X in Vagrantfile 

config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|  
  vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--hwvirtex", "off"]     
end
