<summary>What is a Container?</summary><br><b>
|
||||
|
||||
Containers are a form of operating system virtualization. A single container might be used to run anything from a small microservice or software process to a larger application. Inside a container are all the necessary executables, binary code, libraries, and configuration files, making them easy to ship and run with same expected results on different machines.
|
||||
This can be tricky to answer since there are many ways to create a containers:
|
||||
|
||||
- Docker
|
||||
- systemd-nspawn
|
||||
- LXC
|
||||
|
||||
If to focus on OCI (Open Container Initiative) based containers, it offers the following [definition](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/blob/master/glossary.md#container): "An environment for executing processes with configurable isolation and resource limitations. For example, namespaces, resource limits, and mounts are all part of the container environment."

<summary>Why containers are needed?</summary><br><b>
|
||||
|
||||
OCI provides a good [explanation](https://github.com/opencontainers/runtime-spec/blob/master/principles.md#the-5-principles-of-standard-containers): "Define a unit of software delivery called a Standard Container. The goal of a Standard Container is to encapsulate a software component and all its dependencies in a format that is self-describing and portable, so that any compliant runtime can run it without extra dependencies, regardless of the underlying machine and the contents of the container."

<summary>How are containers different from virtual machines (VMs)?</summary><br><b>
|
||||
|
||||
The primary difference between containers and VMs is that containers allow you to virtualize
|
||||
multiple workloads on the operating system while in the case of VMs the hardware is being virtualized to run multiple machines each with its own OS.
|
||||
multiple workloads on a single operating system while in the case of VMs, the hardware is being virtualized to run multiple machines each with its own guest OS.
|
||||
You can also think about it as containers are for OS-level virtualization while VMs are for hardware virtualization.
|
||||
|
||||
* Containers don't require an entire guest operating system as VMs. Containers share the system's kernel as opposed to VMs. They isolate themselves via the use of namespaces and cgroups

<summary>What is the OCI?</summary><br><b>
|

OCI (Open Container Initiative) is an open governance established in 2015 to standardize container creation - format, runtime, etc. At that time there were a number of parties involved and the most prominent one was Docker.
