How can you determine if processes are active inside a running Docker container?

To identify active processes inside a running Docker container, you can use the docker top command, which shows the processes running within the container.

Example:

docker top <container_id_or_name>

This command will display a list of processes with information similar to the output of the ps command inside the container.

If you need more detailed information, you can execute the ps command inside the container using docker exec:

docker exec <container_id_or_name> ps aux

This will show all processes with their parameters, running inside the container in real-time.
