Single Node Swarm – this is the swarm cluster with a single node. It is mostly used for backward compatibility and testing. This type is not recommended for use.

Swarm Cluster – this is the swarm cluster with multiple nodes. This is the preferred docker type.

Docker swarm node type

The type of a docker swarm node:

Manager – this type of node handles cluster management tasks: schedules services execution, maintains swarm mode. You must add a minimum of three manager nodes. By default, a manager node also acts as a worker node. So, you can create a cluster of manager nodes only.

Worker – this type of node is intended to execute/run containers only.

To add a worker node, you must add at least one manager node first.

Description

A short description of the docker node. This field is optional.
