IS it LXC containers or docker? Or are you running a custom chroot namespace setup?
He runs a systemd-nspawnd container in a "small vm", so neither really?
none of the above. a single vm started by systemd-vmspawn which then starts one or more containers for your instances using systemd-nspawn. It ends up being fast and lightweight.
Oh cool thanks for the info!
It's an interesting project.
Are these systemd containers comparable to lxc containers or better maybe?
This could be a really interesting alternative to fully featured LXC containers.
Ubuntu has a similar cli tool you probably know about called multi-pass but it just spins up Ubuntu distros.
The issue I had with multipass was how difficult it was to access and backup files, I guess it was meant for more of a disposable container.
Haven't checked the actual project but he does state he uses systemd-nspawn. Which is it's own kind of container runtime.
