Re: [lxc-users] Thrilled to announce the the launch of Flockport.com to this list
Hi LXC users, I am extremely excited to announce the launch of Flockport.com to this list, its home so to speak. That's really cool! :) Thank you for this article: http://www.flockport.com/lxc-vs-docker/ It answers my old questions about LXC vs Docker. Also, it looks like there are a typo... Part Docker approach to containers First section, Layered containers - Docker users AUFS/devicemapper/btrfs to build containers + Docker uses AUFS/devicemapper/btrfs to build containers Regards, Vitaly. ___ lxc-users mailing list lxc-users@lists.linuxcontainers.org http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users
Re: [lxc-users] Thrilled to announce the the launch of Flockport.com to this list
A few questions... - How robust are the containers, e.g., how have they been tested? - How secure are the containers, e.g., how can one be sure they don't contain backdoors, trojans, etc.? - What standards are required for the containers? - What's the support for problems with the containers? Poorly implemented containers will do more harm than good for LXC. - Jon On Tue, Sep 9, 2014 at 12:49 PM, Tobby Banerjee to...@flockport.com wrote: Hi LXC users, I am extremely excited to announce the launch of Flockport.com to this list, its home so to speak.

Re: [lxc-users] Thrilled to announce the the launch of Flockport.com to this list
Bravo - as an old openvz/virtuozzo admin, I much prefer containers that can function as full blown linux servers if needed, rather than the single app model of docker, which is wildly popular despite its rather limiting approach.
