Containers Microconference Accepted into 2015 Linux Plumbers Conference

Over the past year, the advent of Docker has further increased the level of Containers excitement. Additional points of Containers interest include the LXC 1.1 release (which includes CRIU checkpoint/restore, in-container systemd support, and feature-set compatibility across systemd, sysvinit, and upstart), the recently announced merger of OpenVZ and Cloud server, and progress in the kernel namespace and cgroups infrastructure.

The goal of this microconference is to get these diverse groups together to discuss the long-standing issue of container device isolation, live migration, security features such as user namespaces, and the dueling-systemd challenges stemming from running systemd both within containers and on the host OS (see “The Grumpy Editor’s guide to surviving the systemd debate” for other systemd-related topics).

Please join us for a timely and important discussion!
