A container runtime is responsible for the lifecycle of containers, including launching, reconciling and killing of containers. kubelet interacts with container runtimes via the Container Runtime Interface (CRI), [45] [46] which decouples the maintenance of core Kubernetes from the actual CRI implementation.
Docker is a set of platform as a service (PaaS) products that use OS-level virtualization to deliver software in packages called containers. [5] The service has both free and premium tiers. The software that hosts the containers is called Docker Engine. [6] It was first released in 2013 and is developed by Docker, Inc. [7]
In software engineering, containerization is operating-system–level virtualization or application-level virtualization over multiple network resources so that software applications can run in isolated user spaces called containers in any cloud or non-cloud environment, regardless of type or vendor. [1]
This changed in v3 with the adoption of Docker as the container technology, and Kubernetes as the container orchestration technology. [6] The v4 product has many other architectural changes - a prominent one being a shift to using CRI-O, as the container runtime (and Podman for interacting with pods and containers), and Buildah as the container ...
Mirantis Inc. is a Campbell, California, based B2B open source cloud computing software and services company. Its primary container and cloud management products, part of the Mirantis Cloud Native Platform suite of products, [1] are Mirantis Container Cloud and Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (formerly Docker Enterprise).

The company uses it as the base Linux for containers in the Azure Stack HCI implementation of Azure Kubernetes Service. [4] Microsoft also uses Azure Linux in Azure IoT Edge to run Linux workloads on Windows IoT , and as a backend distro to host the Weston compositor for WSLg .
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 ...
It is a container hypervisor providing an API to manage LXC containers. [14] The LXD project was started in 2015 and was sponsored from the start by Canonical Ltd. , the company behind Ubuntu . On 4 July 2023, the LinuxContainers project announced that Canonical had decided to take over the LXD project but a fork called Incus was made.
