Docker for Mac ditches VirtualBox and uses a more native xhyve. Also, I believe, Alpine Linux is used as the OS for the xhyve VM.
This uses the same Xhyve driver with CoreOS as base OS.
- mikey_p 10y agoYes, but why does this depend on Docker for OS X if it's not reusing Docker's Alpine VM?
- dlor 10y agoDocker's new Alpine VM isn't really designed to be reused. AFAICT the interfaces are private and undocumented. Reusing xhyve/hyperkit seems more stable, given that they're designed to be embedded.
- manojlds 10y agoNo, this does not depend on Docker for OS X. They both use the underlying driver.
