Solaris containers? Docker, Kubernettes, OpenVZ and alike are simply
Linux implementations of Solaris zones. Solaris zones are lightweight
virtual machines which were SUN Microsystems response to IBM system
partitioning. IBM could partition a big system into several smaller
systems known as "lparts", with each lpart getting its exclusive memory,
CPU and disk resources. Solaris zones were much more flexible and could
share resources with so called "global zone". Docker and OpenVZ were
just a logical continuation of the idea: lightweight "virtual machines"
all using the central Linux kernel and being limited with memory, CPU
and disk consumption. Linux containers are just a port of Solaris zones.
Windows containers are an ungodly abomination with the "Start" button.
