I could be misunderstanding, but isn't this actually just a new OS for use in any containerization system, rather than a containerization system itself? This seems more in line with Alpine Linux or Google's Distroless images than something like a new docker
- cwyers 7y ago> EasyOS is designed from scratch to support containers. Any app can run in a container, in fact an entire desktop can run in a container. Container management is by a simple GUI, no messing around on the commandline. The container mechanism is named Easy Containers, and is designed from scratch (Docker, LXC, etc are not used). Easy Containers are extremely efficient, with almost no overhead -- the base size of each container is only several KB.
- dashwav 7y agoAh I see, I must have glanced over that paragraph there (which is impressive given that it is the one of the first of them). Thanks for the clarification.
- indigodaddy 7y agoPretty interesting.. I'm almost tempted to run some test services (web server, etc) in containers on EasyOS in a DO or Vultr VM, etc..
