Incus has joined LinuxContainers (LXC)
I stumbled upon this interesting platform and thought I’d share.
Incus provides support for system containers and virtual machines.
When running a system container, Incus simulates a virtual version of a full operating system. To do this, it uses the functionality provided by the kernel running on the host system.
When running a virtual machine, Incus uses the hardware of the host system, but the kernel is provided by the virtual machine. Therefore, virtual machines can be used to run, for example, a different operating system.
You can learn more about the differences between application containers, system containers and virtual machines in our documentation.
