Wercker was a Docker-based continuous delivery platform that helped software developers build and deploy their applications and microservices. Using its command-line interface, developers could create Docker containers on their desktop, automate their build and deploy processes, testing them on their desktop, and then deploy them to various cloud platforms, ranging from Heroku to AWS and Rackspace. The command-line interface to Wercker has been open-sourced.

The business behind Wercker, also called Wercker, was founded in 2012, and acquired by Oracle Corporation in 2017. After acquisition, Oracle ceased active development of the platform in 2019, with the last release of the command-line interface occurring on April 5, 2019, and ultimately shut down the service on October 31, 2022.
