Can someone explain in simple terms how Docker for Windows is different from Application Virtualization products like VMware ThinApp, Microsoft App-V, Spoon, Cameyo, etc? Also, why does it require Hyper-V activated in Windows 10? I found this: https://docs.docker.com/machine/overview/ but I don't understand if you need separate VMs for separate configurations or they have a containerization technology where you are able to run isolated applications on the same computer.
