1) Using `docker exec -it mariadb-container bash`

In the last section (`NetworkSettings`) you will find the `IPAddress` for your container. In this example it's 172.17.0.2.
Once you have the IP you can connect with the command `mysql -h172.17.0.2 -uroot -p` (use password from run command)

The above command did not work on Windows/Powershell: `ERROR 2003 (HY000): Can't connect to MySQL server on '172.17.0.2' (10060)`
Alternative on Windows/Powershell: Start the container with a port mapping:
`docker run --name mariadb-container -p 3306:3306 -e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=my-secret-pw -d mariadb`
Connect with:
`.\mysql --host=localhost --port=3306 -uroot -pmy-secret-pw`

**Note:** The mysql client must be installed on your computer. On Windows, you can use the binary from the ZIP archive at <https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/>.

Question: Hmm, I have a container with a DB Server running... But when I remove the container what is happening with my data?
