And the **container** itself (in contrast to the **container image**) is the actual running instance of the image, comparable to a **process**. In fact, a container is running only when it has a **process running** (and normally it's only a single process). The container stops when there's no process running in it.

## Container Images

    steps:
      - name: Stop old running containers (if any)
        shell: bash
        run: |
          running_containers=$(docker ps -q) && \
          if [[ $running_containers == "" ]]; then
            echo "No running containers";
          else
            echo "Running container(s) found" && \
            docker stop $running_containers;
          fi
          docker container prune -f

Let's check back those deployment concepts from before:

* Security - HTTPS
* Running on startup
* Restarts
* **Replication (the number of processes running)**
* Memory
* Previous steps before starting

Up to this point, with all the tutorials in the docs, you have probably been running a **server program** like Uvicorn, running a **single process**.

                startedCrawlerNum++;
                activeCrawlerNum++;
                ThreadUtil.sleep(crawlingExecutionInterval);
                continue;
            }

            // check status
            for (int i = 0; i < startedCrawlerNum; i++) {
                if (!dataCrawlingThreadList.get(i).isRunning() && Constants.RUNNING.equals(dataCrawlingThreadStatusList.get(i))) {

* The process can be **terminated** (or "killed") by you, or by the operating system. At that point, it stops running/being executed, and it can **no longer do things**.
* Each application that you have running on your computer has some process behind it, each running program, each window, etc. And there are normally many processes running **at the same time** while a computer is on.
