🛠️ Task Description

In this experiment, we created Docker volumes and tested their attachment with containers.
We also observed the effect of running containers without attaching volumes.

Final Output

✅ Result

Docker volumes were successfully created.
Containers were tested with and without volumes.
Data persistence was observed when volumes were attached.
It was found that containers without volumes do not retain data.

📌 Conclusion

This experiment helped in understanding how Docker volumes work and how they help in storing data permanently.
Volumes are essential when applications require data persistence.
