It even allows you to update the docker engine, restart the virtual machine (depending if the driver supports it), view its state and so on.
In short, it allows you to control the docker engine of a VM created using docker-machine remotely. The tool to be able to create a remote virtual machine (VM) easily and manage those containers is called docker-machine. When you have a containerized application, it’s important to be able to easily deploy them in the cloud, not only running them locally using Docker for Mac/Windows or from a Linux box locally.
