The Portland Linux/Unix Group Advanced Topics for March:
Brian has been using native Linux Containers (aka LXC) to solve
a need for increased security and isolation while avoiding the
overhead of virtualization. In this talk Brian will discuss:
* Where containers surpass virtualization
* What containers cannot do
* Why he selected LXC instead of OpenVZ or similar products
* Network configuration choices
* Setting up a Linux container
* A demonstration
After the main meeting a subcommittee will convene to study the
best application of containers (holding beer) at the Lucky Lab. |
