Review on runc by Ashton Dahmer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very good containerization tool for Linux

I like that it's simple, easy-to-use interface. You don't need any special software or libraries in order to use this program because everything comes together through one single executable file (a binary). The only thing I dislike are some of its limitations such as being unable to create processes with more than three threads at once. However these can be overcome by using other programs such as Cgroups V2 which will manage those things itself! It has proven very useful during our development process since we were able to easily deploy new versions without having to worry about downtime due to system crashes.

Pros
  • Very Simple
  • Open source so no proprietary code means anyone could verify results/code for themselves.
  • Great documentation available online; there is also an active community if you want help getting going.
  • One tool instead multiple ones :) This helps reduce complexity
Cons
  • Some little things
