5. What is Docker?
— A CLI tool for simplifying creating, using, and sharing
Linux containers
— Linux containers leverage features in the Linux kernel
and can be thought of as "OS virtualization"
— Combines daemon, client, image format all in single
project
— Available from https://www.docker.com
8. What is rkt ("rock-it")?
— An alternative to Docker, rkt is CoreOS'
implementation of the App Container specification
("appc")
— Designed to be modular/pluggable/extensible,
secure, interoperable, natively integrated with init
systems and orchestration tools
— Still very, very early (0.5.6 is latest release)
12. What is Photon?
— Lightweight, container-optimized Linux distribution
created by VMware
— Designed for use not just as host OS, but also as
"container OS"
— Similar projects/efforts include CoreOS, Project
Atomic (RHEL/CentOS), Ubuntu Snappy Core
18. What is Vagrant?
— A cross-platform, Ruby-based CLI tool for
streamlining the use of VM environments (creation,
provisioning, usage, & decommissioning)
— Supports multiple virtualization backends
— Great for testing, sharing with others, creating
consistent environments
— Available from http://www.vagrantup.com
