LINUX CONTAINERS

Software packaging concept that typically includes an application and all of its runtime dependencies.

● Easy to deploy and portable across host systems

● Isolates applications on a host operating system. In RHEL, this is done through:

● Control Groups (cgroups)● kernel namespaces● SELinux, sVirt
