Moby is an OCI container engine and runtime manager designed for building, running, and managing isolated containers based on Open Container Initiative standards. It functions as a container daemon and image builder, providing a core engine to orchestrate the full lifecycle of containers and the packaging of source code into portable images. The project provides a standardized HTTP interface that allows for programmatic container management, enabling external clients to control daemon settings and container operations. It supports a rootless security model, allowing the engine daemon to execu

Bocker is a minimal container management tool written in Bash that implements core container functionality using Linux namespaces and control groups. It serves as a Linux container manager capable of starting and managing isolated processes and images through low-level kernel features. The project includes an OCI image tool for pulling, saving, and building container images compatible with industry standards. It further integrates a cgroup resource controller to restrict CPU and memory consumption for isolated processes. The tool covers the full container lifecycle, including process isolati

Containerd is a daemon-based container runtime that manages the complete lifecycle of containers on a host system. It functions as a core orchestration backend, handling image distribution, storage, and process execution while adhering to industry-standard specifications for container execution and configuration. The project is distinguished by its modular, plugin-based architecture, which allows for the extension of storage, runtime, and networking capabilities without requiring a full daemon recompile. It utilizes a shim-based execution model to delegate low-level operations, ensuring isola

Libpod is a container management library for running and controlling the lifecycle of Open Container Initiative compliant containers and images across different storage backends. It provides a programmatic interface for the remote control and automation of container environments. The project enables the coordination of multiple containers into pods that share network namespaces and other shared resources. It supports rootless container execution by using user namespaces to launch containers without administrative privileges. The library covers a broad range of system operations, including im

Podman is a container engine designed for managing containerized applications and images without the need for a persistent background daemon. By utilizing a fork-exec process model, it executes container management commands as direct child processes of the host system, ensuring that container lifecycles are handled through standard host-level process control. The project distinguishes itself through a focus on rootless security and cross-platform compatibility. It employs user namespace mapping to allow unprivileged users to manage isolated workloads without requiring administrative system ac

Kata Containers is an OCI container runtime that launches containers inside lightweight virtual machines to combine hardware-level isolation with container operational speed. It functions as a hardware-isolated container engine and lightweight VM hypervisor, providing a virtual machine monitor interface that abstracts multiple hypervisors to optimize for performance or specific hardware emulation. The project distinguishes itself through a confidential computing runtime that leverages hardware-backed trusted execution environments, such as Intel TDX and AMD SEV-SNP, to protect data in use. It

CRI-O is an open-source container runtime that implements the Kubernetes Container Runtime Interface (CRI) to manage container images, pods, and containers on cluster nodes using OCI-compatible runtimes. It serves as a node-level container manager that handles image pulling, container lifecycle, and resource monitoring for Kubernetes clusters, running containers according to the Open Container Initiative specifications. The runtime distinguishes itself through live configuration reloading that applies changes to runtime definitions, registry mirrors, and TLS certificates without restarting th

This project is an OCI-compatible container runtime that executes workloads within lightweight virtual machines. By leveraging hardware-based virtualization, it provides strong security isolation between containerized processes and the host operating system, serving as a drop-in replacement for traditional container execution environments. The runtime distinguishes itself through a hypervisor-agnostic architecture that abstracts underlying virtualization operations, allowing for consistent container lifecycle management across different backends. It integrates directly with standard container

runc is a command-line utility for spawning and running containers on Linux systems according to the Open Container Initiative specification. It serves as a low-level container execution engine that interfaces directly with the host operating system to manage the lifecycle of isolated processes. The tool functions as a Linux process containerizer, utilizing kernel features such as namespaces for process isolation and control groups for resource governance. It enforces security by restricting processes to specific directory trees and dropping unnecessary kernel privileges to minimize the attac
