help Docker Enterprise FAQ
Who owns Docker Enterprise now?
Docker sold its Enterprise platform and related business to Mirantis in November 2019. Mirantis subsequently rebranded the platform as part of its cloud and Kubernetes product offerings.
What is the difference between Docker Enterprise and Docker CE?
Docker Enterprise (now under Mirantis) includes layered security, role-based access control, image trust, and enterprise-grade orchestration support on top of the base container runtime. Docker CE (Community Edition), now called Docker Engine, is the free open-source runtime for building and running containers.
Does Docker Enterprise support Kubernetes?
Yes, Docker Enterprise included integrated Kubernetes support alongside Docker Swarm orchestration. The platform allowed operations teams to manage both orchestration systems through a single control plane with the Universal Control Plane (UCP) interface.
How does Docker Enterprise compare to Red Hat OpenShift?
Docker Enterprise focused on multi-orchestrator container management with support for both Swarm and Kubernetes, while Red Hat OpenShift is a Kubernetes-only platform with a stronger emphasis on developer tooling, CI/CD integration, and enterprise Linux integration. OpenShift is generally more widely adopted in enterprise Kubernetes deployments.
