I know I'm more interested in it for "packageization:" Provide and support a very low-level, bare OS, then let different apps build an environment on top of it. That eases partitioning support work between the stack of app libraries and lower-level interfaces. On a cluster, it'll likely be one Docker thingy (or maybe Rocker...) running on multiple, whole nodes. I'm not worried about isolation between containers on one machine. These containers will have direct access to GPUs, IB, etc. Now there may be some nifty things you can do for playing with a virtual ethernet at L2 that lets containers have access they otherwise wouldn't, but that's more for research... _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
