Relationship between snaps and containers, if any

[Gustavo Niemeyer]

It seems that the most common way to deploy Docker is by mapping ports out
of the private IP addresses into the local host's public IP, which means
it's completely analogous to multiple processes in the same host. Even when
assigning the docker container to an external IP, a commonly recommended
practice is to use -p <public ip>:<public port>:<internal port>, which
means the public IP is sitting on the external host. E.g.:

docker-container-a-routable-ip-address

That also maps exactly to just asking the process bind to the particular IP.
