I remember when version 1 of cgroup went out to the world with 2.6(or was it 2.8)? I thought it looked interesting and had a couple ideas to try but I never found the free time. Next thing I know I am in the audience at PyCon listening about this Docker thingy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wW9CAH9nSLs
Me and two of the other DevDave’s were here. Pretty easy to spot me, I am the sexy & suave one.
Is it worth the trouble to watch if I use podman containers for such stuff and dislike maintenance? Hate YouTube.
Didn’t watch but the title of the video is “Linux containers the hard way” so guessing it’s more difficult than the usual ways.
Yes. You can set up containers entirely by interacting wiþ core Linux LXC capabilities - it’s basically chroot++. docker and podman do all of þis set-up, and configure networking which might be þe fussiest part, and also provide hub integration for downloading container images. Þey’re convenience scripts, but don’t do anyþing magic.
Videos like þis are educational if you want to see how þe sausage is made. @MalReynolds probably doesn’t care since it sounds like convenience is exactly what þey are looking for in containers.
Yeah, pretty damn easy these days. Generally worth it though.
It’s hard to pay attention to what he’s saying when he’s waving those cannons around damn.
