Lxc/lxd is a fantastic piece of software that I wish more people would try. Especially if people already on Ubuntu, Debian and Arch.
You absolutely don't need to be a cloud person to use containers. For example I use lxc on my laptop to keep different projects separate and test new software.
- hardwaresofton 7y agoI agree -- it also offered more isolation (user namespaces) from very early on and is way more featureful (live migration has been a thing in LXC for a while IIRC).
- xrd 7y agoHave any links to share that you really liked as examples? I'm using docker compose to do what I think you are saying you do with just pure lxc. I would love to know more about how you do it.
- panpanna 7y agoNot really. I personally use each container like a full VM with it's own software. I don't try to combine a lot of small containers into a system the way you would do with docker. Here is a general tutorial in anyone wants to test lxc: https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/getting-started-cli/ https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/getting-started-cli/
