LXC combines the kernel's cgroups and support for isolated namespaces to provide an isolated environment for applications. [4] Early versions of Docker used LXC as the container execution driver, [4] though LXC was made optional in v0.9 and support was dropped in Docker v1.10. [5] [6]
Container - This somewhat generic container format is specifically packaged for Proxmox (as tar.gz) (and formerly OpenNode too). These builds can be downloaded direct within Proxmox's WebUI [5] (and formerly via OpenNode's interface [6]). The tar.gz archive is also known to work with both vanilla OpenVZ and LXC with minimal tweaking. Xen; Docker
Proxmox allows deployment and management of virtual machines and containers. [7] [8] It is based on a modified Debian LTS kernel. [9] Two types of virtualization are supported: container-based with LXC (starting from version 4.0 replacing OpenVZ used in version up to 3.4, included [10]), and full virtualization with KVM. [11]
OS-level virtualization is an operating system (OS) virtualization paradigm in which the kernel allows the existence of multiple isolated user space instances, including containers (LXC, Solaris Containers, AIX WPARs, HP-UX SRP Containers, Docker, Podman), zones (Solaris Containers), virtual private servers (), partitions, virtual environments (VEs), virtual kernels (DragonFly BSD), and jails ...

Each container is a separate entity, and behaves largely as a physical server would. Each has its own: Files System libraries, applications, virtualized /proc and /sys, virtualized locks, etc. Users and groups Each container has its own root user, as well as other users and groups. Process tree A container only sees its own processes (starting ...
Indirectly through other software that uses cgroups, such as Docker, Firejail, LXC, [19] libvirt, systemd, Open Grid Scheduler/Grid Engine, [20] and Google's developmentally defunct lmctfy. The Linux kernel documentation contains some technical details of the setup and use of control groups version 1 [ 21 ] and version 2.
Sun releases Solaris 8 Containers to enable migration of a Solaris 8 computer into a Solaris Container on a Solaris 10 system – for SPARC only. 2008. The first Linux kernel mainline featuring cgroups (developed by Google since 2006) is released, laying a foundation for later technologies like LXC, Docker, Systemd-nspawn and Podman.
