As it was already said. Docker is not virtualization. The number of Containers you can run depends on the containers and what applications are packaged in them. I am pretty sure you can max out any host with a single container when it runs computational heavy software. And i am also pretty sure you can run on any given host thousands of containers when they are just serving a simple static website
Correct on both counts, although it is possible to set limits that will prevent a single container using all your system's resources.
