I dont know about Linux, but if you'd be comfortable leaving it-is-linux-only-that-exists land, then PC-BSD[0], which is a desktop focused distro of FreeBSD[1], allows you running your browser in a Jail[2], which is a container technology with years of battle experience in production :)

- cbd1984 11y agoAnd if you develop jails, you get the kernel intrinsics that Docker leverages, which brings you back to Linux...
- tachion 11y agoWhat are those exactly? Docker seems to me more like a userland glue for kernel based containers, and since it's starting to support FreeBSD Jails, I dont see why again it has to lead to Linux only, instead to FreeBSD OR Linux (or anything else supported by libcontainer for that matter). The main point is, Linux is not the only thing, and talking like that reinforces that incorrect point of view in other unaware people. Technology diversity is extremely important and cool thing.
- vetinari 11y agoThose intrinsics would be exactly cgroups, they isolate much more than just part of hierarchy in filesystem.
