This step is optional.

If you decided to go with Docker executors in Step 2, use this step. If you decided to use VM build executors, go to Step 3: Set up VB Studio to run VM build executors. You must use one or the other.

In VB Studio, you can run builds on Docker executors. You may want to use Docker executors for your execution platform if you have several templates and frequent jobs. Docker requires one management VM to run full-time, as well as one or more deployment VMs that can switch between templates as needed by different builds. Another reason you may want to use Docker executors instead of VM executors is if you want to include custom Docker images as the base for build executor templates.

You can import Docker images from your private or public Docker registry or create them from build executor templates, then deploy these images on VB Studio's Docker deployment VMs.
