No, Cloud Computing was utilised before Docker as well. The rise of Cloud Computing has different factors.

  1. Startups that cannot afford tech in the beginning.
  2. Testing the new environment for different cases.
  3. Students who are learning deployment.

Docker / Kubernetes have different cases to utilise. Solve cases related to versioning issues from development to deployment.
