Run Docker Container In Detached Mode

Most of the time you need to run the container in the detached mode or we can say in the background. By this, the application will continuously run when we are not engaged by this we can work on the remaining features of containers like networks or volumes of containers and also we can work on different multiple containers. To run the container in “detached” mode use the below command.
