The docker stats command is a powerful tool provided by Docker to monitor the resource usage of running containers. It provides a real-time stream of various metrics such as CPU usage, memory usage, network I/O, block I/O, and the number of processes (PIDs) running inside each container. This command is particularly useful for performance analysis and ensuring that containers are running within their resource limits. Example Explanation

docker stats db370fc6b784
CONTAINER ID   NAME       CPU %     MEM USAGE / LIMIT     MEM %     NET I/O          BLOCK I/O       PIDS
db370fc6b784   minikube   43.70%    1.243GiB / 2.148GiB   57.87%    35.4MB / 414MB
