Example of a Docker container for genomics research. This container would enable researchers to preprocess various types of molecular data, using tools from Bioconductor and Galaxy, and to analyze the resulting data within a Jupyter notebook. Each box within the container represents a distinct Docker image. These images are layered such that some images depend on others (for example, the Bioconductor image depends on R). At its base, the container includes operating system libraries, which may not be present (or may be configured differently) on the computer’s main operating system
