No, you are tied to docker supported operating systems. Will not run on FreeBSD, for example.

  I'll correct myself: s/host OS independence/a certain level of host OS independence And getting containers to run depends on the OS - if you don't control the host, leads to major ping-pongs. Even within Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, RHEL, etc) when you are distributing multiple related containers there are details to care about, not about the container itself but about the base OS configuration. It's not magic.

    You can run Linux under FreeBSD using either bhyve, using the Linux emulator and under jails. But you cannot run docker.

  OP is talking about substituting a Kubernetes setup. FreeBSD was never in the cards. 99% of companies in the cloud don’t run or care about anything other than Linux.

    That may be true, but it’s still not “host OS independence”, which was my point

    Yes, so not really supported.

      That's the lamest excuse ever, are you a tech guy or a lawyer?
