+# OCI/Squashfs Runtime
+
+OCI/Squashfs is a container runtime that allows topologies to run inside
docker containers. However, unlike the existing
+Docker runtime, the images are fetched from HDFS rather than from the Docker
registry or requiring images to be pre-loaded
+into Docker on each node. Docker does not need to be installed on the nodes in
order for this runtime to work.
+
+Note: This has only been tested on RHEL7.
+
+## Motivation
+
+#### Docker runtime drawbacks
+Using the current Docker runtime (see
[Docker-support.md](Docker-support.md#Docker-Support) ) has some drawbacks:
+
+##### Docker Daemons Dependency
+
+The Docker daemons `dockerd` and `containerd` must be running on the system in
order for the Docker runtime to function.
+And these daemons can get out of sync which could cause nontrivial issues to
the containers.
+
+##### Docker Registry Issues at Scale
+
+Using the Docker runtime on a large scale Storm cluster can overwhelm the
Docker registry. In practice this requires
+admins to pre-load a Docker image on all the cluster nodes in a controlled
fashion before a large job requesting
+the image can run.
+
+##### Image Costs in Time and Space
+
+Docker stores each image layer as a tar.gz archive. In order to use the layer,
the compressed archive must be unpacked
+into the node's filesystem. This can consume significant disk space,
especially when the reliable image store location
+capacity is relatively small. In addition, unpacking an image layer takes
time, especially when the layer is large or
+contains thousands of files. This additional time for unpacking delays
container launch beyond the time needed to transfer
+the layer data over the network.
+
+#### OCI/Squashfs Runtime advantages
+
+The OCI/Squashfs runtime avoids the drawback listed above in the following
ways.
+
+##### No Docker dependencies on The Node
+
+Docker does not need to be installed on each node, nor is there a dependency
on a daemon or service that needs to be started
+by an admin before containers can be launched. All that is required to be
present on each node is an OCI-compatible runtime like
+`runc`.
+
+##### Leverages Distributed File Sytems For Scale
+
+Image can be fetched via HDFS or other distributed file systems instead of the
Docker registry. This prevents a large cluster from
+overwhelming a Docker registry when a big topology causes all of the nodes to
request an image at once. This also allows large clusters
+to run topologies more dynamically, as images would not need to be pre-loaded
by admins on each node to prevent a large Docker registry
+image request storm.
+
+##### Smaller, Faster images on The Node
+
+The new runtime handles layer localization directly, so layer formats other
than tar archive can be supported. For example, each image layer
+can be converted to squashfs images as part of copying the layers to HDFS.
squashfs is a file system optimized for running directly on a
+compressed image. With squashfs layers the layer data can remain compressed on
the node saving disk space. Container launch after layer
+localization is also faster, as the layers no longer need to be unpacked into
a directory to become usable.
+
+
+## Prerequisite
+
+First you need to use the`docker-to-squash.py` script to download docker
images and configs, convert layers to squashfs files and put them to a
directory in HDFS, for example
+
+```bash
+python docker-to-squash.py pull-build-push-update --hdfs-root
hdfs://hostname:port/containers \
+
docker.xxx.com:4443/hadoop-user-images/storm/rhel7:20201202-232133,storm/rhel7:dev_current
--log DEBUG --bootstrap
+```
+
+With this command, all the layers belong to this image will be converted to
squashfs file and be placed under `./layers` directory;
+the manifest of this image will be placed under `./manifests` directory with
the name as the sha256 value of the manifest content;
+the config of this image will be placed under `./config` directory with the
name as the sha256 value of the config content;
+the mapping from the image tag to the sha256 value of the manifest will be
written to the "./image-tag-to-manifest-file".
+
+##### Example
+
+For example, the directory structure is like this:
+
+```bash
+-bash-4.2$ hdfs dfs -ls /containers/*
