Docker is evolving towards a generic "container engine" with swappable execution backends. In that architecture, lxc becomes one possible backend. ZeroVM, OpenVZ, kvm/qemu or plain chroot could be used as backends under the same management API.
- jimmcslim 13y agoInteresting, but at that point doesn't Docker just become libvirt almost?
