There is OpenVZ, LXC and Linux-VServer which are the same as FreeBSD jails but for the Linux kernel.
- DASD 13y agoThere was also another predcessor, UML(User Mode Linux). This was widely available and offered such as by Linode before they moved to Xen.
- tmzt 13y agoUML is a little different, using a Linux kernel which relies on the system calls of a parent kernel. The other technologies you mentioned, and LXC which docker is built on, have a single unified kernel which interprets paths and other namespaces in system calls from different process trees differently.
