An Introduction to Linux Containers

Linux Containers

Linux Container Brief for IEEE WG P2302, Boden Russell

Kernel features used by Linux Containers

• Namespaces• cgroups

○ Limit, account & Isolate resource usage (CPU, memory, disk, etc)

• chroot○ Isolate access to disk

• AppArmor• SELinux• seccomp

- mnt (mount points, filesystems)

- pid (processes)- net (NICs, routing)- ipc (inter-process

communication)- uts (hostname)- user (user ids)

- Secure computing/ application sandboxing

- Security modules for controlling access to resources based on security policies

LXC - A Hypervisor for Linux Containers

LXC Components

https://linuxcontainers.org/lxc/introduction

• The liblxc library• Language bindings for the API:

○python3, python2○lua○Go○ruby○Haskell

• A set of standard tools to control the containers

• Distribution container templates

An Introduction to Docker

Virtual Machines Vs Docker

https://www.docker.com/what-docker

Introduction to Docker

• Started as an internal project within dotCloud

• Initial release in March 2013• Initially used libvirt, LXC &

systemd-nspawn• Introduced libcontainer: A

standard interface for Linux containers

An Introduction to Kubernetes

Why Container Clusters?

• Avoid single point of failure• Make horizontally scalable• Have more granular

management for distributed applications (microservices)

• Self healing systems

Kubernetes Component Architecture

Kubernetes Pods

• A group of containers which can share resources and context

• Shared namespaces:○PID namespace (processes visible

globally)○network namespace (same IP and

port space)○IPC namespace (SystemV IPC or

POSIX)○UTS namespace (share a

hostname)

Kubernetes Labels & Selectors• Labels are key/value pairs

attached to objects• Selectors use the label

key to find a collection of objects matched with the same value

Node

• A distributed key value store

• Read and write values with curl and other HTTP libraries

• Store data in directories, similar to a file system

• Watch a key or directory for changes and react to the new values

https://coreos.com/etcd/

etcd

• A software defined network• Runs an agent, flanneld, on

each host• Uses etcd to store the

network configuration, allocated subnets, and auxiliary data (host ips)
