The Docker documentation says that links are deprecated:

The --link flag is a legacy feature of Docker. It may eventually be removed. Unless you absolutely need to continue using it, we recommend that you use user-defined networks to facilitate communication between two containers instead of using --link.

We currently use links in docker-compose.yml to allow containers to discover each other using their names when using the default Docker network bridge, but we can achieve the same thing by using "user-defined networks".
