FreeBSD had the first FOSS alternative with jails, then Solaris with zones. In the intermediate Linux had OpenVZ, but that was a much different container model and required kernel patching.
- tinco 11y agoSo if a typical BSD sysadmin would set up a Rails website, would he create one jail for the application server, one jail for the SQL server, then set up firewall rules so that the app server could reach the SQL server and that traffic to the host would be forwarded to the app server?
- citrin_ru 11y agoThere is more than one way to do this and jail per application is one of then. May be not most popular, but often used.
