This became possible largely due to the advent of kernel namespaces and better resource management with control groups (cgroups). Linux containers (LXC) are a direct implementation of those kernel features that provide operating system level virtualization without the overhead of a hypervisor layer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book starts by introducing the foundational concepts behind the implementation of LXC, then moves into the practical aspects of installing and configuring LXC containers. Moving on, you will explore container networking, security, and backups. You will also learn how to deploy LXC with technologies like Open Stack and Vagrant. By the end of the book, you will have a solid grasp of how LXC is implemented and how to run production applications in a highly available and scalable way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eStyle and approach\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA practical guide that introduces the core technologies behind Linux containers and provides a deep dive into installation, configuration, and operations of LXC.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Packt Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47157370781936,"sku":"9781783985685","price":32.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781783985685_p0.jpg?v=1763726134","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781783985685","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
