Description

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.
