Difference between docker run and docker start
The docker start command starts any stopped container. If you use the docker create command to create a container, you can start it with this command.
The docker run command is a combination of create and start as it creates a new container and starts it immediately.
run -> runs an image
Run: create a new container of an image, and execute the container. You can create N clones of the same image. The command is: docker run IMAGE_ID and not docker run CONTAINER_ID
start -> starts a container.
Start: Launch a container previously stopped. For example, if you had stopped a database with the command docker stop CONTAINER_ID, you can relaunch the same container with the command docker start CONTAINER_ID, and the data and settings will be the same.
